  1. $1 mil over the Chavez deal (previous A’s record) if I’m not mistaken. Making a statement with mediocre starter, let’s gooo.

  2. All i want is for the A’s to crash and burn everywhere they go and never succeed until maybe one dya they come back. Until then, I don’t cheer for teams disloyal to their fans

  3. I think everyone who signs with the A’s are going to get over expectations because they have to pay a premium to get players to agree to play in 110 degree weather at a minor league stadium

  4. Where was any of this money when we were in Oakland? He is either under pressure to stay in the revenue sharing or he really just hates Oakland and never wanted to put any money into investments there to make the move easier. Guess it is a little bit of both. Honestly this just makes me sick to my stomach

  5. So, with a QO that means the A’s have to give up a draft pick right?

    * because for some reason my autocorrect changed QO to WONDERFUL

  6. He’s just pulling a Loria. Act like he’s investing in the team to make sure the stadium happens and gets some momentum, then turning around and selling everyone off once he gets over that hump

  7. This is actually disgusting. MLB needs to be held accountable for essentially killing destroying a fanbase and a city’s civic pride

  8. What’s funny is if this slime bag would’ve put $67 mil into the team in Oakland, he’d probably have 2 World Series titles….

  9. It’s because they had to. They need to increase payroll to $100 million in order to keep the owners and the players union satisfied so they can keep their revenue sharing while in Sacramento.

  10. I think I spent the first third of my life enjoying loving the A’s, and the last 2/3’s of my life wondering why the fuck i still love this team.

  11. 20 years of telling the fans “sorry, but we can’t keep your favorite player”, leading to fans rightfully getting pissed and telling the organization to fuck off. Now that they’ve responded to THAT by pinning their move on the fans, they’ve taken the mask fully off. They always could spend, they just didn’t want to.

    What a sick joke

  12. As an outside observer this just feels like one final Fuck You to you all, spiteful 🙁

  13. This is hardly spending money. This is basically less than Chavez given the inflation.

  14. So fucking insulting… didn’t want to invest at the coliseum but you’ll invest in Sacramento?! Fuck you Fisher.
