So, there goes any sense of optimism my eternally dreary frame of mind has allowed me to enjoy so far in this hasn't-even-really-started baseball season. A's bullpen hammer Andrew Bailey left today's game clutching his right elbow and is headed to Birmingham to see the guy you never go to see unless there is something really, REALLY wrong with you physically. Bailey has already had Tommy John surgery once, so this is pretty much the worst case scenario. With Joey Devine and Josh Outman both struggling to return from injury, the A's are going to have to get some real production out of Brian Fuentes and the loser of the Rich Harden/Brandon McCarthy battle for the 5th starter spot. Harden will probably come out on the losing end of that one, and relying on Rich Harden for ANYTHING is basically guaranteeing yourself some disappointment. OAKLAND A'S BASEBALL, Y'ALL.
