okay, I'm sorry, but this is kind of hilarious.

Alright, so recall, last week, the snarky statement by Ray Fosse about Rich Harden? ("..to be four games back in the West, still right there, very much, and a whole summer of baseball left. People like Rich Harden ready to return. I think the A's are in a good spot." "As long as he doesn't hurt his elbow throwing those sunflower seeds.")
I give you this news release from the Oakland Athletics:

Prior to today's game against the Cleveland Indians, the Oakland Athletics activated right-handed pitcher Esteban Loaiza from the 15-day disabled list and placed pitcher Rich Harden on the 15-day disabled list (retroactive to June 5) with a sprained ligament in his right elbow.

Now, see. Tempting the wrath of the whatever from high atop the thing. Never fails.

Oh my god, I totally remember hearing that comment, too. I'd forgotten about it until you reminded me. Jesus Christ.

There's snakebitten, and then there's Rich Harden, apparently. And I just saw something recently where Huston was talking about how much it kills Rich to not be able to contribute.

And I thought CROSBY was bad. Geez.

Now, the A's are bracing for news on shortstop Bobby Crosby, who injured his right hand fouling off a pitch in the eighth inning. Crosby, whose hand was heavily wrapped after the game, was scheduled to get X-rays in Cleveland before heading to New York for the club's three-game series with the Yankees.

Now, it's crosby...oh, c'mon...
