Halu Sination:
Damn Moneyball wasn't kidding, Athletics truly are the cheapest team in the league.

Hack Wilson - real:
lmao



never have to worry about them winning another title

Remedy360:
How'd I miss this topic? Shit was ridiculous. That place is just a mess in general, last year when the M's were there the septic system went out and toilets were overflowing and shit (pun intended). The funny thing about the A's is, smart baseball people putting together a solid product in a complete shithole, which is pretty much dead opposite to the Mariners.

MistaNova:
Well the A's have been looking to escape Oakland and move to San Jose for a while. Only the Giants are standing in their way.
That said, the A's are the well run organization that they are because they adjust their team to their shitty ballpark. Guys like Parker, Milone, Gray and the rest of their pitchers do a hell of a job not allowing any home runs in O.co (and on the road too) plus the A's mold their defense specifically to assist their pitchers. The AL-West equivalent of the Tampa Bay Raypists.

As embarrassing as the situation was, I don't think it speaks much on their chances of winning a title. The team looks amazing every year. Then again, so do Braves, and we all know 150% that that team ain't winning no title.
