Buster Olney said Holliday is a 1 year rental. If the As are in contention this year and he bolts at the end of the season, Oakland gets 2 compensatory 1st round picks this year which in baseball are becoming more and more important. If they are not in contention they trade him at the deadline and he is 2009s CC Sabathia in terms of the biggest player dealt and Oakland gets prospects in return.
