file photo: A’s pitcher Kendall Graveman

On the A’s podcast with Charlie O the A’s have had a pitcher disaster of a week after getting shelled on Sunday in Baltimore 11-3 and losing by a touchdown 14-7 to the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park on Monday night behind the grand slam of Jackie Bradley Jr. The A’s pitcher Kendall Graveman was lit up on Sunday by the Orioles hitter Manny Machado who hit two home runs and one of them for a grand slam.

A’s pitcher Sonny Gray who has not been throwing in the same way like he did last season is having trouble getting the ball past the hitters was the pitcher of record when Bradley Jr hit his grand slam for the Sox. Gray looks like he might be having arm problems much like his teammates who are either on the 60 DL or just completely off. Gray’s line for Monday against the Sox 3 1/3, eight hits, seven runs all earned, two walks and two strike outs.
