Two weeks ago I took a look at the Oakland Athletics’s recent draft history and somewhat previewed what I think about their draft strategy and how it is evolving with David Forst as general manager. The only main issue with evaluating their recent history is the lack of time for most of these players to develop, giving us an incomplete-at-best look at his success or lack thereof as the face of the Athletics front office. With only eight drafts, one shortened, under his belt even one mistake would provide a glaring hole and cause issues with sample size with regards to any meaningful evaluation.
