It was a busy week for the Oakland Athletics, as they played two games each on Friday and Saturday giving the prospects a good chance to get some playing time with the big league squad. Following a knee injury to Luis Medina much of the attention shifted towards pitching prospects, as the rotation now has a gaping hole that one of these players is likely to fill. In other injury news, pitching prospect Freddy Tarnok is currently out of action due to his ongoing recovery from hip surgery.
Lazaro Armenteros
Armenteros finally broke through this spring, slugging a ninth inning home run against the Angels to put a cap on a 12-5 win for Oakland.
