Oakland city council certified the environmental impact review. Also of note, Kaval’s bid on a site in Vegas (The Tropicana), lost out to Bally’s. Oakland gaining more and more ground.

Chris Bassitt to the Mets for two players that I have never heard of.

Bad way to run a franchise.

Don’t disagree, but it’s been the modus operandi for over 25 years

F me

The Braves aren’t the only team the A’s were talking to for Olson fyi.

A's get a nice package for Olson.

Langeliers and Pache will be solid players for Oakland.

At least they got some good prospects

See that box of big league chew over there? For sale. Those new fungo bats? $50 obo

The dugout bench? Yours if the price is right.

We’ll even bottle up some of the sewage water next time it overflows into the dugout to sell if ya want

A’s have a large and passionate fan base no doubt. The Giants had crowds like that at Candlestick. They built a new park and the fans showed up. Of course, the Giants also spent money on players.

Man, the Giants and Dodgers have great ownership groups. The A’s have Ebenezer Scrooge.
