Giambi

So I've been against this whole Giambi thing from the beginning. I don't like the guy and I'm a barton believer, so yea I'm not too happy with the signing. That said, you have to like the price he came at. I really cannot wait to watch this new team, we haven't had an A's team this capable on the offensive end in what feels like forever. So yea, this probably is a good move for the A's. Worst that happens is giambi gets hurt/goes back to sucking, and then we get my wish and stick barton back out there.

So the offense seems to be fun now, and the rotation still just sucks to look at. Seriously, It's starting to pain me. The only way I see us doing well is if the prospects come up a month or so in and get acquainted super fast. Of course with that said, we may not even have to aim for "well", slightly better than mediocre might win us this division depending on how things pan out. I'm gonna laugh if this is the team that gets us the championship. I'd take it, but man, it's just not that good of a team. Ey for real though, how awesome would it be to trade for tejada and then sign mulder. I'd laugh, it'd be quite the nostalgic reunion. Then I'd probably cry when I have to watch them play.

Eh, mulder I seriously wouldn't be opposed to bringing back though. I mean he's basically mark prior status now, he's probably begging teams to bring him in, and the upside is there for sure. Ideally a minor league deal would be the way to go, maybe even just a spring training invite. I dunno. We need pitching to come from somewhere. But I guess if beane believes the youngsters will be enough, I guess I should trust that, organization knows their own players better than I do. well, gogo brett anderson, hell, gogo gio gonzalez, heres to hoping you don't give up a homer to every other batter you face.
