Because 2 teams with records well over .500 are exchanging players of unequal value. If the A's had a losing record, then it wouldn't be a big deal to cut salary for the rest of the year. How can you advertise to people in the Bay Area to come out for the 1st part of next season when the G.M. gives some of the best talent away while being 9 games over .500? Fact is the fans want a good team more than the G.M. does. He is lucky an A's fan hasn't killed him already. THEIR FANS WOULD HAVE TO BE MASOCHISTS TO PUT UP WITH THIS HERE.
