First, promising hitter, Grant Desme leaves the Oakland A's farm system to pursue a vocation as a priest.
Now according to Jane Lee at mlb.com, this quote from Ben Sheers who just signed with the A's:
"This is where God wanted me to be.."
Wow! It appears that God has taken an interest in the A's for some reason.
Did God feel guilty taking Desme from the A's and felt compelled to give them Ben Sheets in return? Wouldn't he logically have given them a position player, like Desme, rather than a pitcher like Sheets?
Well, obviously God works in mysterious ways and this is proof.
As I indicated earlier, it is obvious that for whatever reason, God has taken an unusual interest in the A's. What this means, I don't know but I am going to be watching them VERY closely this year. I would not be surprised to see Trevor Cahill throw a perfect game or Jake Fox rip off a 5 home run game.
You know, if I was running a book for a casino in Vegas, anything remotely connected to the A's would be "off the board".
Not messing with things I don't understand.

Gotta be the white elephant. I mean, I can imagine the Christian Jesus would be into that kind of thing. The Hindus have Ganesha. It's not a stretch to say that the A's could be the team of a single universal deity.
Certainly a possibility though that elephant has been the A's mascot for quite a long time and I wonder why it took so long for God to notice and then extend favor to the A's. I will chalk it up to a newly-formed interest in baseball by God.
This has been going on for a while. God's interest in baseball, that is. I refer you to Baseball In The Times Of Our Forefathers.
Well then why isn't Israel better in baseball? Yahweh is probably quite disappointed. For what it is worth. I voted for Rafael Bergstrom. I thought he needed a vote.
A female friend of mine converted to the Jewish faith so to marry her Jewish boyfriend. At the wedding when they did that wild "lift you up in a chair and then spin you around" thing, the look on her face was one of pure terror. I thought she was going to "convert back".
