Harold Reynolds and John Kruk

say no playoffs for the A's.

Reynolds:
"they have too many teams to jump."
"They've played their best baseball the past two weeks."
"Texas and Anaheim play in the same division."

Kruk:
"Don't have enough firepower in the lineup."
"If one of these guys go down, they're in trouble."
"Don't have the juice in the lineup that one guy can carry them for an extended period"

Carl Ravich
"Never been much of a buyer at the trade deadline, you wonder if this takes them out of being a seller"

Hmmm... Kruk's point about if one of these guys go down is true as is Reynolds' point about playing their best baseball.  But, this streak can continue if they continue to get the pitching they're getting.  No mention of that
