Lester to the A's for Cespedes is a done deal.

Crap.

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?

He's a free agent after 2015. I don't understand the deal either. Elite OFer/bat

Cespedes was great as a rookie but has been mediocre since.

Dang. I liked Cespedes. He was in sort of a funk for a while but

they must think they have plenty of offense already...

I don't follow them as much as I used to but wouldn't be surprised

rudi, bando, blue, hunter, jackson & campaneris aren't walking through that door

It is a great trade for this year.....here is your platoon answer for LF

I'm a huge A's fan...I'm not sure what to think.

I'm right there with ya. But, in Billy we trust!!

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

I think you hit the nail on the head.

my problem with it is i'm not really a lester fan...

I agree to a point. I think Lester's value is overstated because

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

coug203

7/31/14 8:39am

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

BYUCoug11

7/31/14 8:46am

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

Scratch

7/31/14 9:06am

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

I'd love to hear how giving up a guy hitting .256(.240 last season) and getting

Don't forget the .300 on base.
