That's what annoys me. He runs the Athletics like it's a stock market. |
He's just trying to get that team out of town. That place is an absolute dump. Should've taken the BOS job. |
I believe that's the #1 priority of Emperor Selig right now. San Jose is the proposed new location, correct? |
Right now it's San Jose or Fremont(a suburb of SJ ten minutes away). There is still the whole territorial rights thing with SJ, but SJ has been much more willing to work with the A's in terms of getting a deal done and helping the A's build a stadium.

He's a minority owner. |
IIRC he wasn't when that oppurtunity arose.

| Would this make the A's willing to trade Reddick? |

Just throw breaking balls he will.

From my understanding they don't want to get OUT of the cellar they're in. They want prospects for when they get into their new park.

In other news Yoenis Cespedes will not be heard of again until he is traded for 3 or 4 prospects, who in turn will be flipped for more prospects in two years who in turn will be flipped for more prospects in a few more years

Let's see:
A's sign Cespedes (if he turns out to be the real deal.)
Mariners trade for Montero
Angels sign Pujols and CJ Wilson
Yep, we are screwed next season.
