Athletics Nation My gripe with the current a's organization

 

Trading Brett Wallace for Michael Taylor- Smart

Signing Coco Crisp when you already have Raj Davis, Ryan Sweeney, and Michael Taylor. What? WHAT!WHATTTTTT!!

Why does Billy Beane have such a knee jerk reaction to every move made in MLB. Why can't he relax for a good week and see what happens. Rajai Davis is a  very very solid centerfielder for us now and the future. Thats gone now because of moves like this.

Instead of getting rid of useless players such as Eric Chavez (sorry, i love him, but this aint 2006 anymore)Scott Hairston,Travis Buck and Daric Barton. He adds another one. Rajai Davis made this team somewhat watchable for the last couple of months to not reward him with being our centerfielder on opening day gives absolutely no vote of confidence to any player in that clubhouse. Now, rajai and hairston or sweeney will be traded obviously..and who knows hopefully we pick someone that fills a need.

Listen, I understand we will never be the yankees and red sox. That's fine. But please be smart with your moves! I'm all  for signing a vet for one year 6 million dollar deal. But not Coco Crisp who is by far not as good as Rajai. I'd rate Ryan Sweeney even better over Coco as well.These types of moves makes me wonder why I even bother every year to follow this team. The failed projects of Travis Buck and Daric Barton got me really riled up!

As a fan of this team for the short time I have been on this planet. I really hope when our new stadium is built in whatever city, state, or country. Lew Wolff  and his net worth of (1 billion +) wakes up and starts paying people who will make the A's relevant again. We deserve better! We're tired of the Scott Hairston's, Coco Crisp's and Esteban Loaiza's of the world! Let's sign some quality players. Is that 3-4 million extra that much more money to sign a player like Hideki Matsui? Get a clue A's front office!

I would have imagined today because of theyre hot start. Lemme know detail occurences from the game today. I just want to imagine the jets fans faces after that loss!! So lemme hear any good stories today!
