The Oakland A’s lineup is in a slump. They’ve scored just 27 runs in their last 10 games combined, and it’s no surprise they lost eight of those contests. This is happening despite great production from all three of the new hitters they acquired at the trade deadline.
There’s still a month to go in the season, so there’s time for the offense to heat back up. But there’s also a particularly interesting name lighting up Triple-A Las Vegas right now.
At the beginning of August, the A’s brought back Khris Davis on a minor league contract, just six months after trading him away to the Texas Rangers.
