Special Edition: Zito forum
[Wella's note: It's an off day today and a chance for us to chat. My web mentor Joker aka Gabe is interested in talking about the A's ace, Barry Zito. I should've posted this last week when Joker first turned it in; my bad. If you want to discuss or write about a baseball-related topic, email me.]
Is Oakland preparing to lose another Ace?
by Joker
It looks like Barry Zito might not make all 162 games with Oakland this year. I’m reading on newsday.com comments from Zito agreeing with former teammates Giambi and Damon that New York suits him.
Zito is looking at free agency at the end of this year but his trade might get accelerated if Oakland is not a playoff contender. He is thinking of either the Yankees or Mets. New York is New York for him (translation: Zito likes the Yankees but he can’t say that right now).
This could work out great for Billy Beane who is known to make unconventional moves and yet come out ahead (Moneyball is on my list to read soon).
I just found this unusual. I mean to get this kind of news out on the second game of the season? Man! Wait for at least a few weeks, don’t you agree?
