The Oakland Athletics could be permanently affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected every professional sports team in the United States, but small-market teams like the Oakland Athletics have suffered even more than most.

With reports of furloughs and pay cuts across the organization from players to executives, how will the organization function when baseball does return?

Simply put, not everything is A-ok for Oakland Athletics baseball right now.

It wouldn’t be an understatement to say that the sports world, in general, has been among the industries most severely impacted by the pandemic.
