This evening LHP Felix Doubront (22 IP, 2.2 K/BB, 106 ERA+) faces off against RHP Jarrod Parker (6-1/3 IP, 5.0 K/BB, 300 ERA+), who came to Oakland in the Trevor Cahill deal. His first AL start was against the same White Sox lineup we just left behind in Chicago. Tonight he'll find himself in an entirely different ballgame. Go Felix!

Naturally, Middlebrooks picks now for a "minor thumb injury".
