Good morning afternoon, Athletics Nation!
The baseball world is quiet right now. The World Series is more than a week behind us, and the offseason has only just begun. Any minute now, teams will start signing players and making trades, but for now this is the calm before the winter storm of transactions.
The Oakland A’s did make a move on Wednesday, signing Triple-A righty reliever Matt Blackham to a minor league deal (see Twitter section below), but we’ll talk more about him in a full separate post. It’s either that or an article about the sandwich I’m hoping to have for lunch.
