4/27/10 GDT: Oakland Athletics @ Tampa Bay Rays

Things I'd like to see from Wade today:

• More swinging strikes (4.8% isn't cutting it)
• Limit the walks, get ahead in counts
• More effective curveball (he's throwing it less this season and it has a -1.71pitch value so far)
• Continue to get ground balls (54.8% so far this season)

Things I'd like to see from the offense:

• Patience! Sheets has walked over 5 per 9 innings this year, so don't help him out.

(Is this above section superfluous? I may or may not keep doing it.)

Line-up:

1. Bartlett ss
2. Crawford lf
3. Zobrist rf
4. Longoria 3b
5. Pena 1b
6. Upton cf
7. Burrell dh
8. Jaso c
9. Brignac 2b
