Comcast SportsNet California just released the A’s 2010 television schedule. They’re showing 145 regular-season games (plus two exhibitions), with all the regular-season games in high-definition for the first time.

Also, former A’s third baseman (and Giants hitting coach) Carney Lansford joins the broadcast team as a pregame and postgame analyst. He’ll join Mindi Bach, Matt Morrison and Shooty Babitt on camera.

    I liked the trade of Tony Armas for Lansford some 25 years ago. However, I may have to hit the mute button, if the San Jose native continues to be a booster for the A’s leaving Oakland.

    Cool. I’m sure he’ll have some great insight.

    CArney… cool.

    But please, oh please, lose Shooty. The dude just sucks.

    Carney was the heart and soul of the last great A’s teams. Good to have him back with the green and Gold.

    A great move by Comcast CSCA. Carney represents the past glory of the Athletics with class. He was a team captain of a team the appeared in 3 straight World Series teams. The team needs more of the past players involved with current organization

    I think that Carney is a good addition, especially if he can talk his way out of a wet paper bag. I am not against Shooty Babbit, Jeff in Sac. He’s given interesting perspective onthe game over the last 2 seasons on Comcast. But Carney was the face of those great teams in the late 80′s/early 90′s and he should attract a lot of people who are on the fence about the A’s to watch the the Pre- and Postgame shows on Comcast. I welcome him back to our side of the Bay.

    Hallelujah on the all-HD broadcasts. If you have HD, it is painful to watch a non-HD game. Thank you, Comcast!
