The A's seem to be having a lot of offense problems and I think it may be related to the bats they are using. I dunno' why but they contracted with El Swanno to make the bats for them and it doesn't seem to be working for them. Here's a picture of El Swanno working on a new bat and as you can see the dumbass hasn't even got the basic shape right. While I can see that a flat broad surface might be an advantage, no one can get a grip on the things and they're heavier than hell.

Notice too that the little girl is staring down at one of Dave's older bat designs and wondering how anyone on earth could possibly be that stupid. In a subsequent unpublished photo you can see her turning to look at the fat guy with the horrifying realization that there are at least TWO people that stupid.
