It's crazy how much more the A's look like a legitimate big league line up when Cespedes is anchoring the middle of the line up. I'm hoping Cespedes isn't out too long and that Seth Smith will step up along with Weeks and Reddick. Maybe today's game is a sign that Coco can at least get back to being average which would be a boost.

The starter's are pitching well and the NL West is full of weak line ups so maybe things won't be too bad.
