WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?

HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE

WHAT THE fukk IS WRONG WITH THE JAYS MAN

 

[FreedS[ohh]lave]

sell your future brehs

Good for A's short term.

But trading away a young, up-and-coming bat like Cespedes for 1-2 years of solid Lester is a very questionable move in the long run.

If the As win the WS this year, it's obviously worth it.

But if they don't... This is the kind of deal that comes back to haunt a franchise years later.

Cespedes isn't young he's 29 a year or two younger then lester

Where is JA I can't even from an opinion on this trade.Amazing

Cespy is the A's future? lol he was gonna get overpaid by BOS/NYY/PHI after next year anyway

i love the guy, but Moss can step right in @ LF and is a far superior hitter. Vogt is hopefully not fools gold and continues to rake @ 1st or DH

he's like the face of the franchise and the only recognizable person on the team

nobody cares about these other role players and bums you have on the rest of the squad. all the A's fans I know are pissed he's gone

i agree he wasnt very good though. he will probably do well in fenway i guess
