NOT THIS YEAR

The A's will have to wait another year to get into the playoffs. This team
is flat, deflated big time! You can tell with the comments made by Justin D
about the recent trades. Trades can be a good thing, as long a sit doesn't
mess up the team chemistry, as the trades of the last 8 or 9 months have.
Now it's time to dump Houston Street, as long as were purging.

How 'bout a one year supply of sunflower seeds?

I think the A's have other potential closers right now in the bullpen, yet
they keep running Street out there.
