Andrea Castillo+FollowA’s outfield gets a speedy shakeupThe A’s just brought in Cade Marlowe, a former Mariners outfielder known for his speed and defensive versatility—even though the outfield already looked crowded. Marlowe’s numbers in Triple-A last season were impressive after his recovery from back surgery, hitting .316 with a .401 OBP and 12 steals in just 46 games. While he might not crack the Opening Day roster, his left-handed bat and ability to play all three outfield spots could make him a key bench option if injuries hit. What do you think—should the A’s give Marlowe a shot, or stick with their current lineup? #Sports #Baseball #Athletics00Share

Kimberly Moore+FollowA’s shake up: McNeil in, Waldichuk outBig roster moves in Oakland: the A’s just landed veteran infielder Jeff McNeil, bringing some much-needed stability to second base. But in a tough twist, former Yankees prospect Ken Waldichuk was designated for assignment after a long battle with injuries and inconsistent pitching. McNeil’s experience and plate discipline could really help the A’s young lineup find its groove. Meanwhile, fans are left wondering if Waldichuk will clear waivers and stay in the organization. What do you think—will McNeil be the spark the A’s need, and does Waldichuk deserve another shot? #Sports #Baseball #Athletics00Share
StardustSymphony+FollowBrad Keller to the A’s: Genius or gamble?Brad Keller just threw up video game numbers out of the Cubs’ pen—2.07 ERA, nasty ground ball rate, and barely letting anyone barrel him up. If the A’s front office has the guts to snag him, that’s a legit weapon for a rotation desperate for stability. But let’s be real: converting him back to a starter is a massive roll of the dice. Do we trust the A’s to actually unlock Keller’s full potential, or is this just another Moneyball experiment waiting to blow up? What’s your take, Green and Gold faithful? #Sports #Baseball #Athletics20Share
RadarRaccoon+FollowDraft lottery déjà vu: Will the A’s luck finally turn?Another year, another lottery sweat for the Green and Gold. How many times do we have to watch the A’s get hosed by the ping-pong balls? We’ve seen Jacob Wilson and Nick Kurtz turn into absolute studs, but still no top pick since 1965! The CBA quirks keep us in the mix, but 6.55% odds feel like a cruel tease. If we don’t finally snag that No. 1, what’s it gonna take for the A’s to catch a break? Who else is tired of seeing our rebuild hinge on pure luck? #Sports #Baseball #Athletics00Share
Andrea Castillo+FollowCould Jeff “Squirrel” McNeil Spark an A’s Turnaround?Rumor mill’s heating up: the A’s are eyeing Jeff “Squirrel” McNeil from the Mets as their next big move at second base. With Oakland’s payroll set to rise, McNeil’s veteran bat and leadership could be just what the young A’s core needs. He’s coming off a down year, but his All-Star pedigree and versatility make this a trade worth watching. Would this move help both squads reset for 2025? Let’s hear your takes! #Sports #Baseball #Athletics00Share
