The Oakland A’s are back in action for their ninth Cactus League game of 2021 spring training, and there is only one story line we need to talk about here.
Jed Lowrie is playing.
The A’s signed Lowrie as a minor league free agent and non-roster invitee, and the professional hitter is looking to bounce back after missing the last two seasons to injury. If the former All-Star can re-prove himself this spring, it could mean a third stint in Oakland, the only place he’s ever stayed healthy in his career. And he’d be a nice fit on the current roster, especially if he can still play second base, as he’s doing today.
