Versatile and valuable, Chad Pinder is readying for another season as the A's ultimate utility man. The 25-year-old has been going through his offseason workouts in Charleston, S.C., with plans to momentarily break free from his routine to enjoy the holiday season with his fiancée, Taylor, and his family in Virginia.
Pinder recently took time to chat with MLB.com about Christmas memories, gift-giving and more, including his thoughts on the A's latest doings:
MLB.com: What is your favorite thing about this time of year?
Pinder:Honestly, just getting home and being around the family because with a big family it's hard to get everyone in the same place at the same time, so when we're able to get all four kids and our parents and my grandma, it's nice.
