The A's definately can repeat, but it will be a tough race vs. The Angels.
Look at the Angles...
Outfield, Anderson (who finally looks to be healthy again) Matthews, and Guerrero. All are power hitters and good at fielding as well.
Figgins (when he returns) is the second best leadoff guy in baseball, and plays any position except pitcher or catcher. If Caberera can come back to his 2005 form, thats good, Kennedy was getting old, Kendrick is a natural 2nd baseman, should fit. Kotchman at 1st shows promise, he even cracked a homer to dead center last night, not a bad start for a player who "doesn't have homerun power."
Then there's pitching, once Colon and Jered Weaver are back, I defy anyone to show me a better 5 man rotation. And the bullpen is rated #1 in the AL.
They are a tough lineup, I'm looking forward to a great season. Look out Oakland!
