I know everyone has an opinion on this board when it comes to prospects so I thought it would be interesting to get your perspective on what seems like the biggest candy store in all of baseball: The A's farm system.
There are numerous options. For example, what to do with your second baseman---Patterson, Weeks, Cardenas?
Do you pull the string on Daric Barton who's been awful and injured this year while you have Doolittle and Carter waiting in the wings?
All of these are interesting questions. I just want to hear your answers.
So I'll do it like this. Here's the A's active lineup and farm system. You take this and give me the A's 2010 lineup.
