Hate is a word we try to use sparingly
around OAD-land. But that is how we feel about Matt Holliday. Nobody
was more excited for him to come to Oakland than we were. At spring
training we swooned over his huge hairless arms and thought he was
going to make this season something incredible. And then he was
nothing but meh the whole time. Like just completely phoning it in.
Suddenly, however, now that he is a Cardinal he is a frigging hitting
machine. It makes us furious. We are done with him. And this is to say nothing of the fact that Huston Street has saved 32 of 33 games and Carlos Gonzalez is a home run machine. Ugh.
Go A's!
I never liked Holliday more than just before the season began. I was waiting all through April. Then everyday after that I disliked him more and more each day my dislike grew. Now, I too hate Matt Holliday.

Well, ultimately Brett Wallace may help us forget Street, CarGon, and Holliday... but, yeah, the whole thing kind of sucked.
