Love watching sports. Not a fan of sports movies. But, I finally watched Moneyball. It's pretty good. Not sure why they cast a lumpy Phil Seymour Hoffman as Art Howe. It's not like the role had any challenging scenes.
I know, it's too early to talk about baseball. But what's been happening with the A's is eyebrow-raising, even for Billy Beane. They've traded their 6 All-Stars since the last All-Star game.
Donaldson is a Blue Jay. Brandon Moss is on the Tribe.
I'm actually open minded about the trades. Pitching still looks good. Bullpen looks good. We got some young infielders to compete for jobs. On offense, it looks like Beane might be going for the Royals formula (speed, put the ball in play).

Maybe 2015 is not our year. That could be a huge understatement. Got a kid named Joe Wendle 2B/3B from Indians. Got a power hitting inf. Renato Nunez who might be out of minor league options. Top prospect is a 20 yr old shortstop. Picked up some pitching prospects in trades.
Padres have been busy. White Sox too. Giants replaced Panda with a Santa Cruz local (McGehee). Lots of action, but it's probably still too early to talk baseball.
