It's over. Oakland won the west with the final 3 game sweep. I don't think anyone saw this coming back in May.
Yes, Moneyball is not just a bad movie ... it's also a way to get people to root for laundry. Anyone who's any good from this team will be gone inside of 3 years, to be replaced by some other unknown.
I understand the ownership group wants to move the team to a better venue, just not sure why they can't take the Giants example and build something in downtown Oakland. Reward those diehard fans for once and maybe you'll have the money to keep some of these players in the future.
