I agree with Tim Eckert-Fong on nearly everything Oakland A’s-related. However, he recently posited that the A’s should seek a new outfielder elsewhere than St. Louis’ Stephen Piscotty. I don’t love Piscotty as a trade target, but I believe he makes much sense for the Oakland A’s both now and in the future.
One thought of Tim’s with which I disagree is the idea that, despite his team-friendly contract, acquiring Piscotty isn’t a risk worth taking:
“At six years, $33.5 million, Piscotty’s contract is relatively cheap in the world of baseball.
