No doubt he had a great year and he is clearly comeback player of the year IMO

Hey, if you're going to use illogical arguments, I feel that I am entitled to do so as well.

Default Thomas to play for A\'s next year?

linky

It looks like the A's are now offering 2 years for $6m guaranteed and incentives to $8m. Seems a bit low for a DH with Thomas' 2006 production. But it also seems reasonable given Thomas' age.

I don't see Thomas taking the deal.

plain and simple. And, I hope they get the project under way soon in Fremont.

Wow what an awesome day for an A's fan. I watched the game at a bar in Palo Alto and the place was going nuts. Can't wait for the ALCS. Much love to Marco Scutaro, A's ALDS MVP!
