I’ll take that bet. 

You mean you think it won't happen or it will? 

It doesn't have to be the Athletics, mind you. But Stefanic is the type of guy that someone wants and will give a chance to, or he'll get an opportunity and hit .290 for a couple hundred at bats, and maybe put together a 500ish game career.

Cleveland improves its "lead" in the AL Central.

Well, scratch that game. Counting down to the finish. (As is Nevins and probably Perry.)

I just don’t see him as having success at this level.

Based on my perception of limited power, limited defense and limited speed. I hope I’m wrong.  I like success stories.

They accomplished this by overcomimg a terrific start. Got to give the organization the credit it deserves.

Helps to have probably the absolute worst 68 game stretch (20-48) in franchise history.
