Darvish fulfills Theo's desire to add pitching

OAKLAND -- A group of new A's relievers will descend on Hohokam Stadium come Tuesday, collectively reflecting the months-long work put in by the club's front office this offseason. The following day, they'll take to the field for the first official workout for Oakland pitchers and catchers.

Position players are scheduled to report on Sunday, with the first full-squad workout set for Feb. 19 at the Lew Wolff Training Complex.

The A's will play 32 games ahead of their March 29 regular-season opener at the Coliseum against the Angels -- including 29 in the desert, with 17 of them to be played at Hohokam Stadium.
