I think Ty Van Burkleo gets a bum rap from the fans. A hitting coach is only as good as his players, and Ty didn’t have a lot to work with last year. And as Joe says, many of the players praise him for his work with them. They certainly would know how good he is. And Don W wouldn’t have hired him for Seattle (albeit as bench coach) if he didn’t think he could bring some value to the Mariners.

Wow, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure! Thanks Donnie W for taking the worst hitting coach in MLB. And the kicker….He is with a rival team. Good luck Ty van Strike Three. Make sure Ichiro swings for that three run homer that comes one a month.

OK Can anyone tell me why you are not yet able to order a Matt Holliday jersey off of the A’s website? You can’t even customize his name either. Is there any place I can get an A’s Holliday jersey? Thanks.
