One of the defining features of the Oakland A's in the 21st century was the team's 2002 amateur draft, generally referred to as the Moneyball draft. The group was prominently featured in Michael Lewis' book of the same name, and yet it's possible the only ones you'd recognize now are Nick Swisher and Joe Blanton (and perhaps Mark Teahen). It was one of the earliest examples of Billy Beane's team bucking trends in an effort to gain an edge in a process that is otherwise something of a crapshoot.
