I only remember the days when Jose gave the A's 730 rbis in 7.5 years. Excitement and charisma at the plate and a slew of good deeds that the press never talked about. The only "cancer" in the clubhouse that I'm glad is now gone was TLR and his chosen few clan. If TLR thought Jose was so bad, then why did he call him during the offseason last year and asked him if he would play first base for him in St. Louis? Maybe he just wanted to have him around so he could use him as a distraction and as a scape-goat when things turned sour with the team. Lil
