The off season hasn't been a real hot bed of excitement for our team, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing in my opinion.
The Piazza signing has been the most talked about transaction, but I believe the locking of certain key players has been the biggest part of the off-season.
Locking up Milton Bradley, Marco Scutaro, Kiko Calero, Joe Kennedy, & most recently Kirk Saarloos (who is a personal favorite, but that is because I sit right behind the bullpen and discovered just how cool that guy is) has been EXTREMELY exciting for me. I secures a LOT of what worked last year, so that we might have another exciting run this year. The old saying of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" kind of runs true regarding this team right now.
We are certainly going to miss Frank Thomas, Jay Payton, and oh yeah, some guy named Barry, quite a bit this year, no doubt.
But I believe not NEAR as much as they are going to miss us!!!
Green & Gold forever!!! Go A's in '07!!! ;D

Pizzia is a good addition to the team. I think As fans should be happy about that. Should also draw more fans for the As. More fans for anywhere is always good  |

Beane is still looking for young RH outfielder, so he can have Swisher play First everyday. Hopefully, Billy will someone like that without losing a young pitcher like Joe Blanton.
