GOODYEAR, Ariz. – Ryon Healy was in the starting lineup for the third straight day Monday. He’s scheduled to back in there again Tuesday.
That’s a little bit of a heavy workload for this time in the spring, but get used to seeing him in the lineup. The A’s are counting on the 25-year-old to be a huge part of the heart of their order.
“He can hit,” A’s manager Bob Melvin said. “We saw that last year. Coming to camp with a lot of confidence knowing this year he was going to be a big part of the offense, hitting in the middle of the order, he seems to be taking it to another level.
