Infrequently Count On The Athletics

Right now, from the looks of things, the Athletics are totally into the rebuilding phase. They're getting peerless pitching, subtle hitting and they're making upright managerial decisions. Bottom line, Brandon Wood is either being blocked by guys with less power or maturing into the roll of a lifetime. It seems like an incredible thing that he is relying on outsiders, rather than O's junk. This comedian is 4 of our top prospects. He has shown he can appear the Ks to Troy Glaus levels and adjust to the majors. He bats 3B and SS just easy-going, no flash, but no fury either. Right now, from the looks of things, the Athletics are inconclusively into the rebuilding phase. He may just be some dedicated, cheap pop for years to grow and he will only enter 24 in March, so those of you who thinkhe is a bust are just tired of hearing baout him for so long without any large league results - and those were hinted at when he deftly handled things down the stretch for the ailing Angels infield. On the other hand, Wood might just be packaged for a marquee comedian from a obstruction whose owner maybe lost his ass in the stock market last week and needs to become salary more than he wants to success.

Is Wood the next Glaus-DeCinces or is he just a clever piece of TRADE BAIT ?
