Stan, I have no idea why your paper isn’t showing up until 8:30 a.m., but I would call our circulation department on that. It shouldn’t happen. … Not all of our content goes online right away. My stories on night games, for example, should be fresh by the time you open up your morning paper (at least that’s the goal!) …

And Joe,why am I paying for a paper only to read contents I read the day before online for free?. I think I’m going to let my subscription run out. Besides, my new carrier doesn’t get the morning paper to the home before 8:30..what kind of delivery is that?

In the long run…Bailey will return..the A’s wont have a quality closer..and again,if Reddick is playing for a large contract..Beane will move him. Its a formula Mark that we’ve seen for near a decade.

And I have heard rumors the A’s are willing to trade Reddick and Suzuki. Any other team,that’s crazy talk. Its business as usual for the A’s.

Stan, you do realize that Bailey was traded for Reddick. Bailey has been hurt all year. That trade was a STEAL. So in this case, Beane really is a genius.

As I recall, the Beane media said that closers were in effect, a dime a dozen..Beane could find another easy.
Another fallacy.

I just saw the Comcast special on Suzuki. I know I posted last year that no sooner then he signed a big contract and married a trophy blonde..that would explain his slump. And I had never seen or heard what kind of wife he married at the time.
Now I do..a hot blond.-lol.

Lew on the radio: Poor Lew,poor Billy,poor John,so poor they cant compete. Then they will sell -right? No ! they MAKE money off this team…
Hostages that’s what the fans are.Hostages. And no hope for a A’s team anymore for another WS. Mr.Dolitch..buy the A’s and tear off those tarps!
