Spring is in the air and that mean's I'm sliding in my first Oakland A's takes of the year.  Opening Day is just 3 weeks away and the defending AL West Champs have reloaded to defend their title.  Here to drop takes with me on this week's ACT is a familiar voice in Eli, and first time guest Flush aka Gamer. Both these dudes grew up with me in Berkeley and are ride or die A's fans like I am.  We discuss the highs (bullpen reinforcements) and lows (letting homegrown shortstop Marcus Semien walk) of the offseason, general concerns, position battles (2B again?!), o/u win total, and why BoMel is a legend.  Give a listen and stay tuned for more A's takes as the season gets underway. Bash me. #ACT
