The Oakland outfielder had his second consecutive phenomenal power season, but is largely a forgotten man playing for the A's.
If you want to get famous, playing for the Oakland Athletics right now isn't the place to do it.
Sure, Moneyball made everyone familiar with general manager Billy Beane, and when the A's were one of the best teams in baseball during the late 1980s and mid-2000s, players like Jose Canseco, Mark McGwire, and Jason Giambi were household names. But casual baseball fans would be hard-pressed to name even one player who plays in Oakland right now.
