Latest news and updates about the Athletics
The A’s have dropped the first two games of this mid-week series against our old Bay Area rivals the Giants. That’s extended the losing streak to four games, dropping the team to 38-42 and into third place in the AL West. Can’t think about that though. Gotta flush the bad vibes and that starts today. […]
It’s safe to say that Wednesday night was the best night of Victor Bericoto’s young major league career.

One of manager Mark Kotsay’s flaws has reared its ugly head more than usual of late, and that is a lack of understanding of who his relievers are, what they do well, and just as importantly what they do not do well. Sometimes you get away with “wrong move, right result” and often you do […]
Zack Gelof entered the game against the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday with a record waiting to be broken. He was just one game away from tying the Oakland Athletics’ legend, Jason Giambi’s 25-game hitting streak recorded back in 1997.

Happy Wednesday A’s fans! The Athletics remain stirred in mediocrity at the big-league level. The “Green and Gold” have been unable to establish a foothold above .500 and take control of a division whose expected pace-setter, the Seattle Mariners, have fallen short of preseason expectations. The situation is unlikely to improve unless the team receives […]

Five weeks ago, the Giants took 2 out of 3 from these Athletics and were a bad, but not completely embarrassing 20-27. That series ended with a 10-1 blowout that looked so good that all the Giants seemed to get healthy from it. Adrian Houser even got the win thanks to 6 innings of 1-run […]
While we wait for the Cubs to resume the 2026 season after back-to-back postponements, I thought I’d take this opportunity to present a few more of my thoughts about the A’s and their move to Las Vegas.

Being the highest-paid player on a Major League Baseball team seems like a sweet gig, minus the pressure. Aaron Judge of the Yankees and Shohei Ohtani of the Dodgers are thriving, while others struggle.
The Athletics have had a slew of young hitters drive their rebuild forward and help the team establish a new identity post-Oakland. Nick Kurtz, Shea Langeliers, Jacob Wilson, Tyler Soderstrom, and others have been responsible for the headlines and hope for the A’s moving forward. However, it was not all that long ago that Zack […] The post Zack Gelof Is Thriving in a Utility Role for the A’s appeared first on Just Baseball .
