    Are the A's for real

    Strong young rotation similar to the early 2000s when they had Hudson Mulder Zito

    Offense is coming around and have two good young players Cespedes and Reddick

    Bullpen is strong

    I dont think they get a wild card spot but I can see them being like the Pirates next year

    Angels should stop worrying about catching the Rangers and start worrying about holding off the A's

    If only the A's could get a new stadium they have the biggest ugliest dump of a "stadium" in all of North American professional sports

    the stadium is definitely a problem an outfielder can get lost in their for days its way too spacious. but yea decent pitchin some good young bats they will be contenders for the division next season.

    its smoke and mirrors i think. a lot of young arms in that rotation that could really start to wear down as they reach the 200 innings mark. september could be nasty for them
