Attack of the Clones

NYY 9, OAK 4

I remember from an article about Rich Harden from his rookie year. The article was about one of his spring training starts, if I remember correctly a player with the Mariners said "They cloned him." Him, being Tim Hudson. The article went on comparing and contrasting Harden and Hudson, especially when it came to their stuff.

Well, Harden was pulled from the game today with an oblique strain. Hmmm...where have I heard that before? I remember! That's the nagging injury that always bothered Hudson! Hudson's clone indeed.

And now the status of the A's best pitcher is in doubt. And I thought the A's weren't going to get any worse. Oh yeah, I started Harden on my fantasy teams today. I'm screwed.

You know, Harden and Crosby were both slated to have bobblehead days this year. Curse of the Bobblehead?
