WestEddy Posted March 10 Author Share Posted March 10 I saw the offensive side of the roster as: C - Lee/Thaiss 1B - Vaughn 2B - Rojas 3B - Vargas SS - Monty, or Amaya if he's unable LF - Taylor CF - Robert RF - Tauchman DH - Drury Bench - Sosa, Fletcher, Slater If Taylor gets cut, I'm guessing it's Colas or Baldwin. Meidroth doesn't seem to be crushing Amaya, and Baldwin just isn't getting the reps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A's finding some key hitters in Rooker and Andujar from other teams...Butler Nick Kurtz Gelof Wilson internally. Langeliers another important player.

caulfield12 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 (edited) Looking like Sheets might make Padres. .200 3 homers .793 Or JD Martinez will delay pickleball stardom dream for one more year. Jose Iglesias just signed minor league deal...surprised Getz didn't bite on that one to improve upon Amaya. Also nice to see Josh Rojas with two stolen bases today.

caulfield12 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 (edited) Game again. 6-3 with runner on second and third one out. Bases loaded...uh oh. Katz out.

caulfield12 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 (edited) Vargas with yet another walk. Then an Omar Narvaez single. Also saved a run with a great stop last inning. Taylor with three k's on the day now. Teel with a huge double. Outfielder hurt. Opposite drive to the wall...runners second and third.

caulfield12 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 CWS 5-11, SD 4-12 Ahead of 9-20 pace last spring, just barely. Teel with another spring bomb. Single rbi double two run Homer for Teel.

Expand Rojas, Amaya, Taylor, Tauchman, Drury, Slater seems a bit much of the has-been/never-was veteran demographic. Those guys aren't particularly peddleable, even with good seasons, either. One guy I'm really hoping has a big start is Vaughn....now, he could bring back something, if he rakes for a couple of months. Teel looks like he'll be paying Chicago a visit by late Spring.
