Just wondering if AN Mailbag is still around because I had some general questions that hopefully someone may address:
- Any chance we have a Zito sighting during the Bay Bridge Series?
- Any possibility we can sign Cespedes in the offseason? Or did Jerry win the internet?
- Are there any old players that the A's can possibly bring back? Kurt Suzuki was fun while he lasted, maybe they'll bring someone else back for fun.
- How is Jared Parker doing? What's the likelihood he will be back in baseball. When's Griffin returning?
- With Kazmir gone, who is the 2nd best pitcher after Sonny? It seems like the A's have a bunch of middle rotation guys a far cry from the quadruple "Aces" of 2014.
- What are the best promotional giveaway items: jerseys, shirts, bobbleheads/gnomes, or cereal bowls?
- What is the average length of stay in the A's organization of a first round draft pick? I can only think of Sonny that is still with the A's... Should we not fall in love with our draft picks?
- Is Eric Sogard really the longest tenured A's player? Who is the longest and how many more games/years does Sogard need to pass him? (Feels like Jason Thompson to the Kings...)
- What is the best place to go before/after an A's game nearby? Be it a bar or restaurant etc
- Should the A's and Astros remain permanent trade partners and simply swap places in the standings in alternate years to spite the Angels and Rangers?
I really enjoyed reading the AN mailbag in the past and hopefully someone can resurrect it again. Also if anyone cares to answer some of my random questions, much appreciated. Thanks.
