Last time our precious A’s had the day off, we talked about our favorite players who really weren’t that good. That’s an easy and happy question. Who doesn’t love a quirky role player who isn’t quite that good but play on your favorite team?
Today, we’ll discuss a slightly less happy topic but one that’s still entertaining nonetheless. Who is your least favorite Oakland Athletic who was actually pretty darn good?

There are very few Athletic fans who look back on the Matt Holiday era with much glee. He came over in a terrible trade, he was slightly underwhelming (albeit still pretty good), and he never smiled.
