    Great story but not worth 10-1.

    And do A's have lower payroll than Rays?

                Sad the team doesnt get the recognition it should get since they play in a small baseball market, sportcenter has them behind both Houston and Cleveland in their power rankings. And Khris Davis is now #1 in HR’s but never gets his name mentioned unless he played for the Yankees or Redsox

                            10 to 1 imo isn't worth it, they could beat the likes of Houston maybe, but the Yankees have an explosive offense and Robertson/britton/beutences/Chapman is a impossble 6-9
