I think the A's will be fine...they stay competitve every year...it /is/ the economics of baseball...look at the Phillies, big players this year, but do you expect them to be in the market next year, nope...they'll blew their load to keep the fans interested in a new stadium with a good group of players...but they won't do it again for many years...good players going to bigger teams has been going on for years...I remember reading about the Philadelphia A's selling their good players to big market clubs to make ends meet, so it's no different today than it was yesterday in some aspects.
