Who can name all 50?
So the Oakland Athletics this year have had a record number 50 players, swing through their turnstiles this season. So I post a challenge to all of ye who are up to accept it. Who can name (without cheating!!!!!) Off the top of your head all 50 Athletics to play in this very interesting 2007 season???? The grand prize for the winner(again who really does it off of the top of their head) IS the right to boast to all of us AN know it alls, and also a little bit of personal boast... but its also a sign that you might need to get away from your LED devices a LITTLE bit more often.... ANyway yall rock on, and may the best fan post 50....

DAMNIT! I CAN'T REMEMBER THE LAST TWO!
I cheated by looking at the comments first...
I never would've remembered Erasmo.

though...
I do remember a monkeyball post questioning the logic behind some waiver-wire transaction that essentially cost us Ramirez and someone else inj exchange for...someone else. Probably Witasick and Lugo, respectively. He might have commented before it became known that Witasick requested a trade/release....

AH!
I forgot to write him down!
I had mine typed in Excel before I got here.
I just pasted it. But I might've had help on Melillo and Witasick. And I almost forgot Haren.
Melillo
There is no way I would have remembered Melillo.

Almost a 25 man roster.
Sad isn't it.
We had only 2 guys start tonight who played in the playoffs last year. Ellis (until Nathan broke his finger) & Swish.
Although a disappointing year, at least we aren't in the basement and we can still put together a mini-win streak. I would just love to ruin the Disneyland Candy ass's season by knocking them outta the playoffs.

Just 2 more
and we could have a pack of 2007 Oakland A's novelty playing cards.
great promo idea
that's one i would love to get

what would be great is
if someone would admit to being able to name the 50 sometime members of this year's mediocre squad from memory but not, say, all 50 states. Or any significant discrepancy in favor of the A's roster. I still remember an alphabetically-ordered jingle from elementary school for the latter group of 50, so I unfortunately am in the minus column. Probably minus 7 or minus 8 till I looked at Zonis' posts.
I didn't peak at the others
