In a day the Oakland A’s will descend on the Lew Wolff Training Complex (formerly Fitch Park, same location) in Mesa, Ariz. This is the year, 2020, that the organization sees the cracked window open wider — when all young prospects and established talent are in place to make the A’s strongest run at postseason’s door — and the first winds are blowing in.
This offseason for the A’s felt like one long waiting game; this window was basically open months ago, with a few inches left to consider — more second base options, more pitching and, perhaps, more backup catching options.
