Elephant Rumblings: Flurry of trades over weekend before 2020 MLB deadline

Good morning, Athletics Nation!

The Oakland A’s are taking at least a few days off after receiving a positive coronavirus test among their ranks. First and foremost we wish the best health and safety to everyone on the club, from players to staff to anyone else involved. Fortunately, the first round of follow-up testing yielded no new positives, reports Susan Slusser of the S.F. Chronicle, and the team is still in Houston getting a second round done.

In the meantime, with no A’s games to follow, we at least have the MLB trade deadline to keep us busy.
