“Just give me a CHANCE!” | Photo by G Fiume/Getty Images
Before delving into today’s topic, here’s an update on my promised interview with Driveline’s Kyle Boddy (pronounced “BOH-dee” by the way).
I had a chance to do the interview Wednesday, on Zoom, and I thought it went great — I am excited to share it in the not-too-distant future. The interview also went a whopping 45 minutes, which means a ton of transcribing.
Luckily for me (and for AN), one of the site’s...

All around great day for the A’s
Another A’s win, baby. The Athletics crushed their opponent for the second day in a row, putting a whopping on the rival Angels 12-1 on a great Friday afternoon at the ballpark.
The Green & Gold got out to a fast start today against their division rivals. Taking a lead in the bottom of the first inning, starting catcher Shea Langeliers gave the A’s the first lead of the day with a solo home run, his first of the...

A peak into the future
The Spring Breakout is here! Our very own young crop of A’s prospects join together to face off the San Diego Padres own team of top prospects for a fun little peak into the future of both of these franchises.
Taking the ball for the start of today’s game will be right-hander Luis Morales. Generally considered a top-5 prospect in the system, Morales will get an excellent opportunity to introduce himself to A’s fans today....

Time for another win in the desert
After a late-game rally turned a possibly loss into a massive win yesterday, the A’s continue their spring training with another matchup with their division rivals from down south, the Los Angeles Angels.
Right-hander Joey Estes will get the ball for his fourth appearance of camp. He’s still in competition for the fifth starter’s role and he could give himself a leg up with a big outing today. He has a 5.87 ERA in 7 2?3...

Happy Friday, Athletics...

What a ninth inning! Even for spring!
The Athletics rallied back late in a big way on Thursday afternoon, scoring 11 runs in the top of the ninth to take the lead for good against the Cincinnati Reds.
It was a battle of left-handers as JP Sears took on Reds’ starter Nick Lodolo. Both starters were on their A-game today in what could be their second-to-last start before the regular season begins. Neither team scored a run over the first five frames as offense...

Can the team finally end this losing streak?
The Athletics started the spring out hot but have now lost three straight games. They’ll try to break that losing streak today in an afternoon contest against the Cincinnati Reds.
The A’s will send out left-hander JP Sears for what will be his fourth spring outing. He’s looked good so far in his first few outings during camp and will likely start the season out as the team’s #3 starter behind...

Time for another vote!
After a short break we at Athletics Nation continue our Community Prospect List. The winner from the last vote and occupying the 20th spot on the list is shortstop Ayden Johnson.
The 17-year old shortstop out of the Bahamas only just joined the organization in January, signing on the 20th as a free agent. His calling card is his hit tool, as well as major-league power already at such a young age. That combination should help...
The American League West should be one of the more fascinating divisions in all of baseball in 2025. The Houston Astros won the division for the fourth consecutive year in 2024, securing their seventh AL West title in the last eight seasons.
Michael Harris II led off the fifth with a home run and added a three-run shot later in the frame to highlight a nine-run inning as the Atlanta Braves battered the host Baltimore Orioles 13-5 Wednesday in Sarasota, Fla.

My Quest
I would like to go up to Sacramento to see the A’s on Tuesday, April 1st, the second home game of the season. However, I am simply not willing to pay ridiculous prices to see the A’s in their minor league park under an owner who should be ashamed of himself but...
The Athletics’ decision to leave Oakland was an unpopular one among their Bay Area fans. It also did not go down well with at least one rival broadcaster.
