A's Land Holiday

According to several media sources the Oakland A's have acquired all star outfielder Matt Holiday from the Colorado Rockies. While the deal has not yet been made official, it has been said they they have agreed in principle to send Holiday for a package of players that reportedly includes closer Huston Street, outfielder Carlos Gonzalez, and starting pitcher Greg Smith.

Holiday, a two time all star, is considered by many to be the prize offensive player available this offseason. The lone downside to any deal for Holiday is that he has just one season remaining on his contract. He is scheduled to make $13 million this season baring an extension.
