No worries. They'll still bow out in the ALDS. And won't have Lester or Cespedes

That is true. Definitely going all in for this year.

were they going to lose cespedes anyway?

A dude who hits homers and throws players out w/ no hop from the fence are hard

how many guys does he throw out a year?

And it very well may get them a WS. High risk high reward.

Thank you. Finally a little actual insight.

So, you say the A's tend to choke early in the playoffs, and this is somehow

This trade won't help the Angels, at all. A's got better. And, you still have

But the Angels have the best batting lineup in baseball with the key pieces

I don't think Cespedes was the best bat. Top 3 though

Best bat? That's hilarious. I'm not sure he's in their top 5.

It is HIGHLY debatable that the A's got better for the rest of the season.
