Only 3 games in. Not a great stretch. Last night's 3-run loss is fresh and it shows. Counterbalancing that, relatively healthy at 1 on the IL.

Athletics News

The Oakland Athletics stumbled out of the gate, suffering their third consecutive loss after a 5-2 defeat against the Blue Jays, leaving them winless at the start of the season. With the A’s high-powered offense projected to be a top-5 unit in MLB, it’s alarming to see them struck out a staggering 50 times in just three games, setting a major league record for the Blue Jays. Luis Morales takes the mound today, trying to shake off a rough spring training and ignite a spark that the A's desperately need. If this lineup is as good as they claim, they must find their rhythm quickly, or the 2024 season could become a long, frustrating road.
