Shortstop has been a black hole for the Oakland A’s throughout the 2021 season. Even though Elvis Andrus has started to heat up over the past three weeks, the A’s have had the worst production from the position of any major league team this year. Andrus simply has not gotten it done throughout the season.
Given the A’s issues at short, it is not a surprise that this would be a position they could target at the trade deadline.
