WHAT A CONCEPT!
Last night's starter for the A's, Justin Duchscherer, pitched for AAA-Sacramento this season, and guess what? Sacramento is in the PCL PLAYOFFS!
Boy, you know, Sac-Town could have used Duchscherer in their playoff series. But the A's are smart enough to know that the minor league playoffs don't mean anything compared to the MAJOR LEAGUE postseason. Duchscherer was 14-2 for the River Cats in 2003, and was named the PCL Pitcher of the Year.
Meanwhile, the Mariners AA affiliate, San Antonio, are in the Texas League playoffs. I've said this all along, and I'll say it again: WHO CARES about the minor league postseason? Clint Naogette and/or Travis Blackley deserve a start with the M's. It's not a coincidence that Gil Meche and Joel Pineiro have struggled in the 2nd half. Skip Meche or Pineiro, and let Blackley or Naogette start. It may sound ludricrous, but those San Antonio fans don't deserve a championship.
Seattle fans DESERVE a championship more than freaking San Antonio! Remember THIS!
