There's No Crying In Baseball... (8~25~09)

Bobby Crosby, rookie of the year, injury prone, dud. Just trade him and get it over with.

The A's aren't going to the post season this year, but I'm sure eventually they would like to get there. They are doing the right thing exposing these young guys to the bigs when they have nothing else to lose.

Hopefully one thing these guys don't learn is how to be a douche, because Bobby Crosby is just that and now his dear ol' daddy had a few words for one of the greatest organizations in baseball.

The Quote:

"My feelings are that he has been messed around with, and that Billy Beane (A's general manager) has done a number on him," says the 60-year-old Crosby, a retired major league scout who resides in Garden Grove. "Right now Bobby's on the disabled list, and he's not even hurt. He had a twinge in his left calf, but it wasn't serious enough to put him on the DL. But they were just looking for an excuse. Bobby's not hurt, period."

Bobby may not be hurt, but he hurts the team with his attitude and his bat. Yes, he has shown he can play other positions and do them relatively well. I understand parents want to stick up for their children but Bobby is supposedly a grown man and this is baseball. Maybe you can whine when you are hitting .230, how bout that?

You may have been rookie of the year, but guess what? So was Ben Grieve, and we all no what happened to him. Oh! Wait! Actually we don't. Did he fall off the face of the earth? Eh. Who cares.

So Ed how do you feel about Bobby's brother getting picked up by the A's? If they are such a crap organization he should have just waited around for another team to make an offer.

I knew we should have kept Scutaro! MARCO ::CLAPCLAPCLAP:: SCUTARO ::CLAPCLAPCLAP::

Man those were the days!

Hit the road Bobby, we don't need you or your dad
