What have we really learned about the A’s so far in 2021?

We’re three weeks into the 2021 season, just over 10% of the way through. So far the Oakland A’s have alternated between occupying the role of worst team in MLB, and hottest team in MLB, and April isn’t even over yet.

The A’s lost their first six games, tying their worst start in franchise history and getting outscored by a thousand runs along the way, and eventually found themselves at 1-7. They were easily the coldest team in the league standings, and panic set in early.

Then they reeled off 11 straight victories, and almost completely flipped the script on the run differential.
