Welcome back, Athletics Nation!
Hope you’re all geared up for what’s certain to be an unpredictable and, hopefully, fun year, with nearly half the roster made up of new players. We’ve got upside, we’ve got downside
The team and fans will be getting their first look at some of those acquisitions today. From the Sean Murphy trade, Freddy Tarnok is lined up to take the ball at some point in the game with Manny Pina receiving. The A’s most recent acquisition, JJ Bleday, will be hitting cleanup while Rule 5 draftee Ryan Noda will be hitting eighth.
