They have a handful of young guys that don't get praise nationally they are due thanks to the team's circumstances. Rooker and Lawrence Butler are having excellent seasons, Bleday seems to have finally figured it out, and Mason Miller is IMO one of the best relievers in baseball.
I usually get annoyed when people trash sports owners and League commissioners. Teams are a business vehicle and a commissioner is there to maximize the value and appeal of the league. John Fisher, however, deserves every ounce of vitriol that is sent in his direction. The A's are arguably a top 5 all-time baseball franchise and this POS has them on par with floundering XFL franchise.
