A's fan Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 QUOTE(max power @ Jan 8, 2008 -> 06:35 PM) Ozzie will probably leave him alone. He is a bit older and more proven than the people he had issues with in the past. I hope so because swish is a great player. I hope we get something out of the three we got for swish.

max power Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 De Los Santos will probably be a pretty decent reliever. Sweeney is still young enough to have a solid chance at being a starting outfielder but not quite of Swisher's caliber, and he showed talent before injuring himself last year, but I expect gio to fail. Those are just my guesses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soon when cisco field opens up we'll be good and have money to actually sign FA's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I hate the damn move because the management is screwing the colseium and oakland untill they open cisco but if it maskes the A's better I'm going to have to roll with it. I go to the colesium all the time for raiders,A's games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are just my guesses. The move to Oakland I think will really help Gio's development. I don't think he fails at all. In fact, I think he's the safest bet out of this bunch. And, at this point, I think Ryan Sweeney is completely hit or miss; if he can show the bat speed and strength to turn on that inside pitch or hit for power the other way, he's going to be a stud; if not, I see him as a 4th outfielder.

Sounds fine. Not going to argue about these guys. I'm sure everybody has an opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
