Ugly girlfriend
means no confidence. - Okay.
You guys are full of it. Artie
is right. This guy's got an attitude.
An attitude is good.
I mean, when this kind
of guy walks into a room,
his dick has already been
there for two minutes.
He passes the eye-candy test.
He's got the looks.
He's ready to play the part.
He just needs some playing time.
I'm just saying,
his girlfriend is a six at best.
Look, if we're trying to replace
Giambi, this guy could be it.
- La-la-la-la-la.
- I agree with you.
Damn, Billy,
was that a suggestion?
Guys, you're just talking.
Talking, "la-la-la-la-la,"
like this is business as usual.
It's not.
We're trying to solve
the problem here, Billy.
Not like this.
You're not even looking at the problem.
We're very aware
of the problem. I mean...
Okay, good. What's the problem?
Look, Billy, we all understand
what the problem is. We have to...
Okay, good.
What's the problem?
The problem is, we have to replace three
key players in our lineup. - Nope.
What's the problem?
- Same as it's ever been...
We have got to replace
these guys with what we have exist-
No. What's the problem, Barry?
We need 38 home runs, 120 RBIs
and 47 doubles to replace.
The problem we're trying to solve
is that there are rich teams
and there are poor teams, then there's
50 feet of crap, and then there's us.
It's an unfair game.
And now we've been gutted.
We're like organ donors for the rich.
Boston's taken our kidneys,
Yankees have taken our heart.
And you guys are sitting around
talking the same old "good body"
nonsense like we're selling jeans.
Like we're looking for Fabio.
We got to think differently.
We are the last dog
at the bowl.
You see what happens to
the runt of the litter? He dies.
Billy, that's a very touching story
and everything,
but I think we're all very much
aware of what we're facing here.
You have a lot of experience
and wisdom in this room, you know...
You need to have a little bit of faith and
let us do the job of replacing Giambi.
Is there another first
baseman like Giambi?
- No, not really.
- No.
- And if there was, could we afford him?
- Nope.
Then what the fuck
are you talking about, man?
If we try to play like the Yankees
in here,
we will lose to the Yankees
out there.
Boy, that sounds like
fortune-cookie wisdom to me, Billy.
- No, that's just logic.
- Who's Fabio?
He's a shortstop.
He's a shortstop from Seattle.
This is no time
to push the panic button.
The way our scouts are
going to find players,
our Player Development is
going to develop them.
We are going to teach them how to play
Oakland A baseball.
With all due respect, we've
been doing this for a long time.
Why don't you just let us be
responsible for replacing Giambi
with who we know
that can play?
