I think it's the single best trade we've ever made -- just because of the lack of offense (this year). With Jermaine, our offense was already good and he bettered the offense.

I know Lackey said something back in Oakland, and he said something today, too.Eric Chavez
I have the right approach now. I had the wrong approach. Now, I'm less aggressive and I'm letting things happen. I like to swing the bat and attack the ball. I'm seeing the pitch and slowing it down a little bit. As funny as it sounds, I'm really not worried about my numbers.

I've said it before. This team is going to go how the hitting goes. It's too much pressure for these guys to throw shutouts every game. We need to be consistent, especially against a mediocre pitcher.

We got lucky. They had a brain cramp. The rest of the game, we were playing with house money. ... I think the guys smelled blood in the water.

If you look at it, we have a pretty decent history of playing well without some of our main guys. Last year I was out for five weeks and the offense went nuts. Tim Hudson was hurt too, and Mark Mulder missed some time when he was here, too. But we've always found a way to get through it, and knowing that helps right now, definitely.

The A's won't quit, because such acts are beneath them, but there is no more race to join. We're not counted out yet, but it's pretty obvious what the scenario is, ... We'll play it to the end, let the numbers dictate where we are ... but it's pretty clear what we're facing.
