PLAYING TIME: A's form committee; Sanchez is back

AMERICAN LEAGUE

A's move to closer committee

A gory blown save by Brian Fuentes (LHP, OAK) has opened the door to a committee at the back end of the bullpen for the Oakland A's, one that will include young Ryan Cook (RHP, OAK), as well as the pitcher that started the season as the team's ninth-inning pitcher, Grant Balfour (RHP, OAK). How do their skills stack up?
