The hot stove is hot! Here’s what last nights moves mean for the A’s.
It’s a bit of a beautiful shocker that the Diamondbacks are going for it just a year removed from....that. With a new front office, a healthier lineup and rotation, and a few surprising stars, the Diamondbacks are a legit threat to win a playoff berth via the Wild Card.
