On the A’s podcast with Charlie O:

1) A’s fans now are talking about winning the Western Division, not just making the Wild Card Game. Is that a realistic goal for this Oakland team?

2) Last week, you said that August 10th to the 22nd were the 12 most important days of the 2018 season for the A’s. Do you still feel that way? How are they doing so far?

3) The Seattle Mariners have been on the move and are nipping at the A’s heels just 2.5 games back in the standings. On Tuesday night, the M’s got Robinson Cano back after his long suspension. What kind of impact will Cano make on his team?

4) A’s players are making appeals to fans to come out and see them play. Why aren’t the fans filling the seats at the Coliseum?

5) There is a group called the Portland Diamond Project that is drawing up plans for potential downtown ballparks in Portland. Should Bay Area fans be worried about that group?

6) The A’s announced on Tuesday the establishment of the Athletics Hall of Fame. What are thoughts about the concept and the Class of 2018?
