Pretty good odds
considering the Oakland A's are playing better than
anyone else in the American League over the past week.
At press time, the A's held onto a 49-45 record and
there is plenty of time left in the season to improve on
this.
The veteran face of the
A's is much younger than that of other clubs, that's for
sure -- yet vibrant and vital and still in its prime.
It's younger even than that of previous A's teams, which
is really saying something.
But that doesn't mean the A's are without veterans. Nor
are they without leaders.
Nor, as we head into the heat of the summer, are they
without a chance to play in October.
With all that in mind, you simply can't dismiss what
Oakland's relatively young veteran presence --
principally, Eric Chavez, Barry Zito and Mark Kotsay --
has meant to the midseason surge the A's have put on to
elevate themselves into the race for a postseason spot.
This is a fun bet that
could yield a substantial windfall if the Oakland A's
should walk away with the 2005 World Series
Championship.
