I was just going to mention the A's trade for Conor Jackson today. This is interesting on a lot of levels. Jackson doesn't have a ton of pop, but does have a very pure stroke. I'm curious as to where he is going to play. He's been playing left in Arizona, but came up as a 1st baseman. The A's should be getting back Coco Crisp soon and he go immediately to center and the top of the linuep. Ryan Sweeney is locked in right and Jack Cust holds the only bit of power on that team at DH. When Crisp does come back Rajai Davis, who has come on of late would slide from center to left and share time with Gabe Gross and Eric Patterson. Daric Barton is currently the A's 1st baseman. I'm guessing their not sold on him for a pennant race and this trade seems to me to say the A's aren't selling. I thought they would this season having Ben Sheets to deal, but maybe not. The West has fallen back and is mediocre. Even at a game under .500 they're only a couple out. They'll be an interesting team to watch come the deadline.
