Ya, my friend, I was just going to say, Oakland has plenty of power with uber Jake Fox the Home Run threat.

If they are going to move him, it's probably more likely to be next winter or the Trade Deadline after that. I don't think we took ourselves out of the potential acquisition of any great player by the moves that we made this winter. At the same time, I don't think it would have been fruitful to hold your breath and stomp your feet and hope that someone trades you a great player."
