Beltre sucks…I’m excited the A’s have money to spend, but on Beltre…bad investment. Could you imagine if we had Carlos Gonzalez now, we wouldn’t need Beltre

Davis was the teams most exciting player. Billy Beane hates healthy exciting players, the guy loves the slow 2 tool types who play like he did (sorry).

This most be a continuation of managements ploy to reduce to product to nothing to further shrink the fan base and justify a move.

Another bad move by Billy Beane. Carlos Gonzalez, Andre Ethier, Nick Swisher, Nelson Cruz, the list goes on and on…..

bummer about raj, but considering that the team stole the most bases in its history last year and was only 500, you can’t really say he or at least his speed was a key to oakland’s success. he sure was exciting though. certainly a fan favorite. now of course, watch him go all scutaro on us and become brett butler with pop.

oy, beltre… again, what to say. it goes without mentioning that he’d be the best thirdbaseman immediately in the entire organization and probably the best over all player on the big league team, but man, so many years? you thought chavez and dye were big chunks of misallocated payroll, i can only imagine what it’s going to be like with such a massive contract for someone who yes, has put up impressive offensive numbers, but has also had his fair share of stinkers too.

I agree Davis is a big loss.
I hope these two minor league relievers are real good.

It would be a great boost to sign Beltre. I hope he accepts the offer.
