The Oakland Athletics are continuing their downward trend and the losses keep piling up. The A’s dropped their series opener in Houston on Friday night and fell to 53-69 on the year.
With the A’s set for yet another last-place finish, September call-ups are likely the final event fans are looking forward to. The last month of the season may offer a small glimmer of hope for the A’s dwindling fanbase.
Young prospects will be given an opportunity to shine during the final weeks of the year and Renato Núñez will likely be among those receiving a call-up.
