A good signing for the A's, although it is a pile of cash for someone who never threw a ball last year. In the same sense, they don't have much to offer from the bump, so even a semi-effective Sheets is an upgrade to what they have. If Braden, Cahill and Mazzaro can continue to grow, they could have a very respectable staff in 2010. Love their bullpen as well, and the acquistion of Kevin Kouzmanoff, though I have never been a big fan of Cliff Pennington playing up the middle.
