When Mike Piazza plays his first game for the Athletics on Monday, three of the four slowest players of all time (and four of slowest six) will have played for the Oakland A's. And that doesn't even include Eric Karros, who is tenth.
It's totally amazing that the A's manage to replace Frank Thomas with an even slower player than Frank Thomas. Kinda like how Cheers managed to replace Coach with a character who was even dumber than Coach.
Somehow, we gotta get Paul Konerko in an A's uniform before his career is over.
Strangely, he hit one triple in the 1980 World Series.
Ben Grieve has around 3600 PAs, so he didn't make the list. But he has 192 doubles and 5 triples.
Grieve had one triple in Oakland in 1998 and one in Detroit.
Another in Oakland in 2000. In 2001, he hit one in Tampa Bay and another at Florida.
