ARLINGTON -- Superstition is woven into the game of baseball so tightly that sometimes players and managers have to contort themselves just to avoid acknowledging the obvious.

ARLINGTON -- The Athletics didn’t officially announce Tuesday night’s spot starter, lefty Jacob Lopez, until the night before he faced the Rangers at Globe Life Field, and manager Mark Kotsay set modest expectations for the 27-year-old lefty before the game. “We’re hoping for him to throw 85-90 pitches and get

The Washington Nationals are on the clock. OK, not quite yet, but they do have the No. 1 pick in this year’s Draft, and MLB Pipeline has an updated and expanded Draft Top 150, ranking the players all 30 teams are criss-crossing the country to see to line up their

ARLINGTON -- Athletics starter JP Sears worked out of a two-on, one-out jam in the second inning. Then reliever Mitch Spence got out of a bases-loaded jam in the sixth. Closer Mason Miller had to navigate around a four-pitch walk to start the ninth. Those are the types of situations

What a difference one year -- and one or more players -- can make. The seven teams below really scuffled offensively at a certain position in 2024, but now they are flying high at that same spot in 2025. Whether it's due to the performance of a newcomer or a

WEST SACRAMENTO -- Mark Kotsay walked into the Sutter Health Park media center before Sunday’s postgame press conference and issued a warning. “Heads up in here,” the Athletics’ manager pointed out on his way to the podium. “I don’t think that ball has landed yet.”

WEST SACRAMENTO -- It’s hard to pinpoint exactly what’s behind Athletics left-hander Jeffrey Springs’ first-inning struggles in 2025.

WEST SACRAMENTO -- Jacob Wilson didn’t waste any time after making one of the finest defensive plays of his young career. The A’s rookie shortstop bounded into the dugout after making a stellar throw across his body to keep a run off the board in the fifth inning of Friday’s

Some of baseball's most well-known prospects stood out on Friday, including a trio of hurlers that finds itself among the Top 100 in Bubba Chandler, Thomas White and Trey Yesavage.

WEST SACRAMENTO -- Entering the night carrying the seventh-highest batting average in the Majors and having hit safely in 21 of his first 23 games, Jacob Wilson clearly has a pretty good idea of what he’s doing at the plate. Sometimes, though, you need a second opinion. Take Thursday’s series

WEST SACRAMENTO -- Around this time last April, Nick Kurtz was taking classes as a junior at Wake Forest. One year later, he found himself at Sutter Health Park preparing for his Major League debut. To describe Kurtz’s path to the big leagues as a fast track would be an

When discussing the fastest prospects (and frankly, all players) in baseball, there’s the Rays’ Chandler Simpson and then there’s everyone else. Now in the big leagues, Simpson has led scouts to say that he should get at least a 90 run grade on the 20-to-80 scouting scale. Watching him do

The Nationals own the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 Draft, which comes with a record assigned value. But the Mariners, who jumped from No. 15 to No. 3 in the Draft Lottery, own the largest overall bonus pool. MLB released the slot values and bonus pools to teams

WEST SACRAMENTO -- In January 2024, regrouping from another frustrating Draft lottery that saw the club fall outside of the top three picks despite being tied for best odds to land the top selection, the Athletics’ front office and scouting department gathered to kick off the amateur scouting season.
