The A's Offseason Shopping Trip

So I was reading articles on the A's mlb.com site and in the article about Macha (Macha's crew unable to rally vs. Moyer) this bit of information caught my eye:

"The A's were in the middle of a players-only meeting Friday before the opener of their season-ending series against the Mariners, discussing how they'll split the modest amount of money they'll be awarded for coming in second place in the American League West"

and I got to thinking of fun possible things they could purchase...

My question to all of you is, what do you think they should spend the money on? Something realistic like sending Chavs to the batting cages? Or something a little more creative... like buying some more miniskirts for Huston?

feel free to treat this as some kind of open thread...

How about a Pilates Table
So they can all improve their strength and flexablity and cut down on the injuries next year. It would definately help with those pesky oblique(sp?) problems!

I'm with you on this one
plus some time with a Pilates personal trainer...and they should keep it up during the season, not only in the off season like Kotsay was doing.

Same here
I dance, and Pilates has strengthened me so much. If it worked for me, It'll work for them

Another 'Huddy Oblique Massage Machine"

... and it was at that point that I realized that by thinking outside the box, I had simply walked inside a cube...
