Jul 3 C Kurt Suzuki might be Oakland's best bet as an All-Star, and he's making a push at the plate at the right time. He had two hits Friday and is hitting .370 in his last 16 games to raise his average to .282. The A's other All-Star candidates are said to be LHP Dallas Braden (losing record, 6-7, but a 3.13 ERA) and OF Matt Holliday (.272, eight homers, 41 RBIs). Yahoo! Sports


Jun 24 Suzuki went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in the A's loss to the Giants Wednesday.

Recommendation: He drove in two of the A's three runs Wednesday. He is not a power source by any stretch of the imagination, and his 25 RBI entering Wednesday tied him for eighth among AL catchers.
