Zach Neal made his major league debut with the Oakland Athletics back in 2016. After a long and winding path, he made it back to the majors with the A’s in 2023 for the first time since the 2018 season where he appeared in just one game with the Dodgers.
How Acquired?
The Athletics signed Neal to a minor league deal on April 7.
What were the expectations?
There was virtually no expectation for Neal upon signing with the A’s. The thinking was that he could provide some relief depth at the minor league level.
