my favorite part of this movie was where barry zito wasn't allowed to exist. in fact, they didn't even pretend to have a starting rotation at all to speak of. just market inefficiency buy low projects and david justice. that being said, wonderful film. fantastic stuff. a+

I like Moneyball. I get everyone thinks I was trying to dunk on it. I like the movie. It is a good movie. It’s just funny that’s how they told the story. I’m not making some grand criticism about this 13 year old movie about on base percentage. Be normal in my mentions please.
@broeyramone It’s like Nomar once said to Mark Mulder when they were both on ESPN, “There were no pitchers in ‘Moneyball.’”
@broeyramone Almost like they pretended not to have 3 of the best aces in the AL in Hudson Mulder and Zito
@broeyramone no zito no hudson no mulder and they didnt have to buy soda pop in the clubhouse
@broeyramone lol I have spoken with my friends about this a lot. They had the best pitching staff in the league that year. Zito, Hudson, Mulder were dominant.
@broeyramone It wasn't a documentary on the 2002 A's. It was a movie that dramatized one facet of what made the 2002 A's so successful. There's nothing wrong with that at all.
@broeyramone You mean the same Barry Zito who was drafted & developed by the A's, & was making $295K in 2002? Looks like you misunderstood the entire premise of the movie.
