Yanks, Red Sox and Cards (I know everyone reading that heading guessed those three teams before you even read it)
And when they get their 90th win this week, you can add the Oakland A's to that list.
Wow.

And for all that, how many playoff series have the A’s won in that time?
Wow.

Beane trades away guys who are no where near their free agent year who say they want to stay, for the sake of making trades and put guys in those spots who aren't moneyball players in any way just to fill a spot and somehow these teams play well together. Then Beane gets all the glory. They need new management. Sign everyone on this current team and they'll win it with another big pitcher.

But, with their situation being what is it, the team should be a bottom dweller permanently. They play in a joke of a stadium, they are the ugly stepsister to the team across the bay, they have a poor TV deal and a fan base than knows the team could move at any time.And everytime they get a quality player, a fan favorite, he promptly gets leaves, Donaldson, Gray, Cespedes. Not exactly conditions that breed success.
