Adam Piatt

The year started poorly, as he was sidelined with a strained oblique for much of spring training and never got on track. He hit well for a brief time after being called up following the trade of Jeremy Giambi, but soon found himself benched, and, eventually, in Triple-A following the sale of John Mabry's soul to the devil in return for three good months. Mashed Triple-A pitching, which earned him a call-up for a fun September. Could help the A's, and a spot might open up if David Justice decides to retire and Oakland is unable to land another corner outfield bat. 400 at-bats would result in 20 home runs.
