They’re not trendy pick, but A’s win again

The Mariners were the chic pick in the American League West, the focus of a Sports Illustrated spread because of their dynamic defense, a team to be reckoned with after acquiring Cliff Lee, Chone Figgins, Casey Kotchman and Milton Bradley.

The A’s reckoned with them, all right, and the scoreboard proved it. Capped by Thursday’s 6-2 victory, the A’s won three of four games, collected 40 hits to the Mariners’ 26 and overcame an Opening Night error-fest to open a season 3-1 for the first time since 2004.

“Can’t play too much better than this,” starter Brett Anderson said after scattering three hits and issuing one walk in six scoreless innings. “Can’t have a better team win.”

Suzuki receives Catfish Hunter Award

During his time as an ace right-hander for the A’s, Jim “Catfish” Hunter was known as someone who carried more than his share of the load.


Current A’s catcher Kurt Suzuki can certainly identify with that, and so Wednesday’s announcement that Suzuki was selected by his teammates and coaches as the recipient of the 2009 Jim “Catfish” Hunter Award seemed fitting.

Suzuki, who likely will lead American League catchers in games started for the second consecutive season, and Hunter, who twice threw more than 300 innings and eclipsed the 250-frame mark in six other seasons, would have made quite the battery.

A’s bullpen promises bright future

The A’s will have plenty of question marks heading into Spring Training 2010, but there won’t be much uncertainty surrounding the constitution of their bullpen.


Heading into this week’s series against the Rangers — the second of three games is scheduled for Tuesday — Oakland’s relievers were sporting an American League-best 3.57 ERA, and every key member of the unit is expected back next season.

Even better for the cost-conscious club: They’ll return on the cheap.

All-Star closer Andrew Bailey, right-hander Brad Ziegler and left-hander Craig Breslow aren’t yet eligible for arbitration, and top setup man Michael Wuertz is a year from free agency.

After day off, Suzuki to continue grinding

A’s manager Bob Geren gave starting catcher Kurt Suzuki the day off on Sunday in order to keep him fresh for the upcoming series against the White Sox in Chicago.

Suzuki has played in 124 games this season, and caught in 115 of those. With reserve catcher Landon Powell showing some power at the plate, Geren has had the flexibility to give Suzuki an occasional day off.

According to Geren, Suzuki will be back behind the plate on Tuesday. Suzuki, who caught 141 games last season after only catching 68 in 2007, said the grind of catching over 130 games can catch up with player.
