Good morning Athletics Nation! Rise and shine!
The team is set to begin their second-to-last series of the first half, preparing to host the Atlanta Braves to West Sacramento for the first time. Sitting at just 37-55, the first three months of the season proved that this team still isn’t quite ready to make a serious push for contention, but the next three months could determine how much longer we’ll all have to wait to see this team fighting for a postseason spot. The Braves find themselves in a similar boat at 39-50 but took a different road to get there.
