The trade deadline has passed and the Oakland A’s have only reaffirmed their commitment to the youth movement. Jace Peterson and Sam Moll are both gone, with Double-A starter prospects Joe Boyle and Chad Patrick joining the organization, but many others like Aledmys Diaz and Trevor May remain. Getting called up to the major league team to take the Peterson and Moll’s spots are Tyler Wade and Kirby Snead.
With a slightly different but mostly identical team, the A’s will continue their eight-game road trip in Los Angeles to face off against the contending Dodgers. A’s fans are obviously hoping we walk away from the three-game series with some wins but they’ll also look to keep the “SELL” movement going with “Sell The Team” chants in the 5th inning after successfully getting Giants and Rockies fans to join them the last two series.
