Well the A's have had serious injury problems too. Chavez broke his hand, as has Dye. Hudson was out and Mark Ellis, our Gold Glove-caliber second baseman was lost for the season. And we don't have a Vlad or Jose who can fill in those holes!
And while they're not injuries, don't even get me started on how God-awful our bullpen is this year....
