The Oakland Athletics may not be the most popular club in sports, but Yoenis Cespedes definitely seems to miss his time in Oakland. Cespedes expressed interest in returning to the A’s before he steps away from the game for good.
Cespedes, 31, was a crucial part of Oakland’s success in 2012 and 2013. He was traded midway through the 2014 season for ace Jon Lester in a blockbuster trade that divided many experts.
The A’s went all in with Lester, but soon found out that the A’s offense was less potent without Cespedes.
