The Oakland A’s aren’t perfect. They haven’t won a World Series title in over three decades. They don’t pay to keep star players. Their stadium situation is a mess. Their owner is an embarrassment.
Hold on, I’m pretty sure I was going somewhere with this.
Oh yeah. The A’s aren’t perfect, but one thing they do consistently is win games. In the regular season, at least.
Oakland appears headed for another rebuild this winter, as their latest window of contention has probably closed. The next couple summers will likely be on the quieter side, which makes this a good time to remind ourselves that The Process usually goes pretty well around here and generally yields Octoberish results.
