Yep. Lamb to AA, of course.

- "That's what they keep tellin' me."
great, we can promote these guys
so they rot in omaha while we bring in garrett atkins and jeff francouer…meanwhile all the other teams in the division (not to mention the league) have young guys up and producing.

Too late now
You posted it, this will then probably make it happen. The Jeff Francouer joke was a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Here we go.

Ummm
That was a mistake, but heck, Lowell’s gritty enough to mention twice.

Three Years Ago
I was for this, moving Gordon to the OF. Not now, though.
I used to be an A's fan until they left town and got good.

I envision an Adrian Beltre signing
3 years 36 millions sound familiar?
Fields
Have we heard anything that might indicate the org’s game plan with him?
for when I'm too lazy to come here, http://twitter.com/AtTheWall
Quarterback?

Costa
Does anyone know the whole story on Costa? Why was he out virtually all of last year and some of this year? I never could find out what his injury was. Is he in the low minors essentially to rehab since he was a former Major Leaguer?
Forget Costa
He’s a 4th outfielder when he’s healthy, and he’s never healthy. He needs to quit, and so does Matt Herges.
- "But Frank, that's the worst shortstop in the league."
- "That's what they keep tellin' me."
Who's Jarrod Dyson?
Obviously not an A prospect, but could he be a useful fourth outfielder?
"The bowler's Holding, the batsman's Willey" - Unfortunate cricket commentator
He's a wheels-first guy that's a solid defender
He has a bat, but it’ll never be major league average. He could be a 4th OF in a pinch, but I might use Lough first.

For the record:
In a series of random comments before the season (in interviews and at “FanFest”), DM made clear that he really likes Dyson, for some reason.
I know that was a while ago, but I thought it was kind of noticeable at the time…
