Only 76 messages at the last hijack central, but it was starting to drop well down the page, so let's start a new one.

Isn't Karros the kind of player we would rail at the Pirates and Tigers and Royals for signing? Unlike if one of those teams signed him, however, Karros won't likely be counted on for much in Oakland -- a good thing, since he won't provide much. A Karros/Scott Hatteberg platoon is a fabulous idea -- at least it would have been five years ago. The A's have assembled, at this point, a HOF-calibre pitching staff to go along with a Tigeresque lineup. It will be an interesting year in Oakland, considering how improved the Angels figure to be.
