A's owner pushes public, MLB for move to San Jose SAN JOSE (AP) — work for us, for planning our baseball team every year.'' Oakland Athletics owner Lew Wolff said Wednesday that indecision by Major League Baseball over whether his club can move to San Jose has been ''excruciating'' but that he believes the process is final- ly nearing an end. Just not as quickly as he'd like. Taking questions at the downtown Rotary Club of San Jose, Wolff said the uncertainty about the possi- ble move is harming the franchise more than any- thing. He's hopeful that a resolution from baseball is coming soon — a word that has been reiterated by many for years. ''I'm not going to con- tinue this much longer,'' Wolff said. ''What we want is an answer. We want a yes, you can relocate and share the district, share the territory. Or you can't. But not having any answer is very difficult. Not just for me, but for the people that The A's need approval from league owners to move to the south bay, where the San Francisco Giants hold territorial rights to the technology-rich region filled with fans and corporate dollars. Not to mention the Giants' Class- A affiliate is in San Jose. Commissioner Bud Selig appointed a commit- tee in March 2009 to evalu- ate the issue facing the Bay Area teams. MLB spokesman Pat Courtney said Wednesday there was nothing new from the com- missioner's office on the sit- uation since Selig's remarks at the owners' meetings last month that the issue was on the ''front burner.'' Wolff again refused to give a time frame on a pos- sible decision — perhaps because even he's not sure when one could come down — and hinted that he could force a vote by league own- ers in a few months if a rul- ing remains in limbo. He later clarified to reporters that he plans to wait for the committee's recommenda- tions. ''We're following the process. It's excruciating,'' Wolff said. ''We talk con- stantly on many matters. I think we're getting there. We have ways where we can be a belligerent owner. It's not in me at this point.'' Among the other notable items: — Wolff said buying out the Giants' territorial rights to San Jose ''has not been discussed with us.'' — He confirmed the team would be renamed the San Jose A's if it relocated. There was even a stuffed version of Stomper, the A's mascot, dressed in a ''San Jose Athletics'' uniform that greeted guest at the lun- cheon. — Wolff said he'd be fine if the Giants wanted to keep their Class-A team in San Jose. — The A's are not exploring a move to any other city and selling the team is not an option now. — Wolff said the team took in about $32 million in revenue sharing from other teams last season. He said the franchise spent all of the money, about half on player payroll. He expects payroll to be about $65 million to $70 million next season. Without a deal to move out of the outdated Oakland Coliseum, the A's maintain that they can't compete with other clubs. Oakland shed several of its best play- ers this winter — including top starters Trevor Cahill, Gio Gonzalez and closer Andrew Bailey — for tal- ented prospects in the latest payroll purge. ''I have one grandchild who still won't talk to me since we traded Gio,'' Wolff said. Wolff, a successful Los Angeles real estate develop- er, reiterated the he has exhausted all efforts to keep the team in Oakland. The A's also had previ- ously planned to build a state-of-the-art stadium in nearby Fremont that they thought would eventually transform the small-budget club into a big spender. That plan, which would have been in partnership with Cisco Systems Inc., fell through because of a variety of complications — includ- ing public transportation issues. There also are similar environmental and trans- portation concerns that could derail the San Jose project with a series of law- suits, including one against the Silicon Valley city from a Giants-supported group called ''Stand for San Jose.'' Wolff believes all those issues will be resolved and that lawsuits are often part of the process. ''If you have a cure for cancer in California, some- body is going to be against it,'' he joked. Wolff declined to go into specifics about what is holding up a decision from the Selig-appointed com- mittee. But he said every- thing has been researched and discussed by the club and all that's needed now is a decision. ''If baseball is hiding some magic formula,'' Wolff said, ''I wish they'd tell me.'' 3:15 p.m. 7 p.m. 3 0 7 4 1 6 51 37 31 48 Sports Spartans have final tune-up By RICH GREENE DN Sports Editor With the league cham- pionship just days away, the Spartans took to the mats for one final test against Paradise, Wednesday night. While the Bobcats pulled off a 54-21 win, several Spartans made the most of the night to grab some momentum heading into Saturday's Eastern Athletic League- South finals in Oroville. Red Bluff gave up 18 points in forfeit by not filling the 195, 220 or 285-pound divisions. In the first match of the night, Marco Gonza- lez earned a hard fought 11-4 win over Logan Hoskins at 106 pounds. Red Bluff would have to wait awhile to see another winner, but the Spartans got on a roll when Kyle Case earned an impressive pin over Marcum Odell in 5:40 during their 145-pound match.

The team announced Wednesday that Saunders will be on new coach Dennis Allen's staff in 2012. Saunders was offen- sive coordinator under Hue Jackson last season. The Raiders had previ- ously hired Greg Knapp to be offensive coordinator even though Saunders was still under contract. Saunders has spent the past 29 seasons as either a head coach or assistant in the NFL. He won a Super Bowl as receivers coach in St. Louis in 1999 and has been to the playoffs 15 times.
