Oakland goes for its second win in a row against the hapless Devil Rays tonight.

Tampa Bay pitcher Hideo Nomo goes for his second win in a row tonight against the hapless AAAthletics.

Who will prevail? Place your bets...

Let's Go AAA's!

Which will be lower tonight: The number of runs Oakland puts onto the scoreboard, or the number of fans it puts into the seats?

Oakland looks to humiliate itself even further by putting together its second eight-game losing streak of the month.

Remember: There is no crying in Moneybawl.

6-game losing streak on the line. Can the $66 Million Man keep it alive by going 0 for 5??

As most Oakland fan's know, when the team was sold to Lew Wolff, the new owner made Billy Beane a limited partner in the franchise.

With Beane ensconced not only in the GM position through 2012 but also the owner's suite, is there any hope the Oakland front office may someday realize that Moneyball doesn't really work unless you have a "Big Three" to back you up?

How far must the team sink before Beane begins to reconsider his approach and let small-ball advocates like Ron Washington take charge?

The AAA's are riding a five-game losing streak.

Barry Zito on the mound tonight. Lord help us.

Breaking news!

(No, Pathetics Nation didn't score an interview in which Billy Beane
has agreed to answer softball questions from wannabe writers.)

The news is that Tokyoak, founder of PN, has been banned from posting
at our sister site, Athletics Nation, by blogmaster Blez. In fact,
Blez exercised the "nuclear option," erasing all of Tokyoak's posts
on AN from this season and last.

Tokyoak believes Blez feels threatened by the growing number of
intelligent A's fans who refuse to contribute to the Jobless
Journalist Fund by purchasing "In Billy We Trust" T-shirts. But
that's simply one employed man's opinion.

Whatever the reason, Tokyoak has just one response: "There is no
crying in baseball, Blez."

Danny "Hard Luck" Haren versus Hideo "The Hurricane" Nomo.

Who gives a damn what the starting lineups look like. Both teams suck.

Top of the 6th, AAA's down 13-2, and Eric Chavez (with his $60 million contract) is a no-show (again).

An Oakland AAA's Blog!

Here, there's none of that "In Billy We Trust" bullshit.

And we won't try to sell you any T-shirts, either. (We don't need to--we have real jobs.)

We love the A's, but we tell it like it is. The team sucks this year.

Wear it.
