Happy Wednesday, Athletics Nation!
There is a lot of forward-looking reading out this week as the A’s first season in Sacramento fast approaches. I’m happy to see that the A’s are investing more in their on-field product these days, but I sure wish the organization had given up its tight-pursed ways sooner. As John Shea at The San Francisco Standard suggests, the current spending boost does feel a bit like a final insult to Oakland.
Imagine if your spouse or significant other split up with you and within weeks was parading around town with a new flame in the same convertible Mustang you said you wanted for your birthday five years in a row.
