Pretty sweet that the team started hitting... but in truth they're facing some god awful pitching in Oakland. People pegging A's as a wildcard contender are massively naive. Their starting staff is a bunch of hasbeens.
Was any signing more baffling / confusing / dumbfounding than Eric Hosmer's??? I mean Pujols was bad but nobody could have predicted such massive decline so quickly... Hosmer's has to be the absolute dumbest big contract signing of all time.
No defense + no legs + fluky BABIP season = mega contract
