What does the bullet below from the new CBA mean?
'Oakland's revenue-sharing funds will be cut to 75 percent next year, 50 percent in 2018, 25 percent in 2019 and then phased out.'

Why is Oakland singled out?

I had the same question. This article (http://www.eastbaytimes.com/2016/11/30/as-awaiting-final-details-of-new-baseball-cba-with-money-on-the-line/) says the A's were only able to receive revenue sharing funds under the last CBA because an exception was made for them. I hadn't realized that.

Word on the radio here in the Bay Area this morning was that this possibly means a new stadium deal for the A's will be announced soon.

Just have to flush out the details?

that would be great for the club and for MLB.

Would hope they get a deal done, but don't know anything beyond what was mentioned this morning on KQED (what I posted above).
The local ESPN station may have more details this evening on the drive home.
