Jason Giambi is excited to watch Oakland's young hitters swing the bat, while also helping the A's pitchers learn some tricks of the trade. "Definitely," Giambi said. "No doubt about it. I love to watch guys hit, period. I do it all the time in the dugout. And when you do that so much, you can pick up a lot of information about guys and their approach, what they do or don't handle really well in certain counts and situations. "Joba used to pick my brain like that a lot, and I was happy to help him out -- just like I tried to with the young kids the first time I was with the A's."
