We recently asked former Indians and Rangers scout and current Scout.com National Baseball Expert Frankie Piliere for his take on the A's class. http://athletics.scout.com/2/1193872.html 2047 Melissa Lockard http://athletics.scout.com/2/1193872.html Mon, 11 Jun 2012 06:06:00 GMT 1 304 Oakland athletics
