The list of reasons why you should watch the Oakland A's this season pretty much starts and ends with Mason Miller. Miller's fastball-slider combo is one of the best in the league and it's not even that much of an argument. Accord to Miller during an appearance with Foul Territory, the team told him if they tried to turn off the lights at the Oakland Coliseum, they might not be able to get them back on.
