This week’s rankings are focused on all things September — the postseason chase, the callups, the expanded rosters, the goals for each team.
At one point this season, the Oakland A’s were 12-50. Look at that record. Stare at it. They were on pace to go 31-131. That’s Cleveland Spiders stuff. The worst part is that their run differential suggested that it was exactly the record they should have had. They weren’t unlucky. They were just historically awful., but it’s not historically awful. It’s just garden-variety awful.
And it’s enough to give them a chance to not finish with the worst record in baseball, which was unthinkable at one point. John Fisher is a modern-day Ganondorf, seeking to destroy all that is good and pure for no reason other than he can, but the players are real human beings. The A’s actually passed the Royals in the standings on Sunday. If they can hold them off in the final month, the team should take some satisfaction from it. It looked absolutely impossible just a couple of months ago.
