A's Poised To Swoop And Sign A Cespedes Who Isn't There

Great. I volunteer for one day at a nursery and now I think I've developed planter fasciitis. Next week I'm having an MRI to find out if I also have claustrophobia.

In any event, flash back to around this time in 2011 and the A's also had a team that, on paper, did not look special but had some interesting talent and youth, along with a failed LH hitting 1B/COFer who, into his mid-to-late 20s, had never really gotten an extended shot in the big leagues -- a player by the name of Andrew Lambo Brandon Moss.
