Oakland's collapse is nearly complete. Thanks to Seattle's win last night, the A's now are only 1 up in the first wild card, and 0.5 up on the Royals, 1.5 vs. the Tigers. And with a series vs. the Mariners this weekend, suddenly, the wild card race could become wide open, with even the Yankees, Indians, Royals/Tigers and Jays not out of it.
The Mariners aren't in the clear yet, though.. the Angels may have something to say about it, with 7 remaining vs. them.
At this point, Oakland can't even beat bad teams.. they're now 14-21 since the Cespedes trade.
