The mixed bag of the Bay Bridge series is over, and once again sights are now set on the AL West. It has been a long time since the A’s have matched up against their division rivals, apart from the occasional short series here and there, but as the season plugs through the dog days of August and starts to wind down, the faces of Oakland’s AL West foes become all too familiar once more. At the very least, the A’s are finally at full strength with most all of its key players coming off of the Disabled List (newly acquired players in the Sonny Gray trade and Andrew Triggs notwithstanding) and poised to be at their best as the inter-divisional matchups resume, increasing the chances that the A’s can move quickly up, or further down, in the standings.
