Happy Wednesday, Athletics Nation!

The 2024 MLB Postseason is underway, and the first games of all four Wild Card series are in the books. For the fourth straight season, the Athletics will see the playoffs as spectators only. But there are a number of former A’s with World Series hopes this fall, and as no teams were particularly dominant in the regular season, fans should hope for especially fierce competition and plenty of surprises this October.

Lucas Erceg recently donned green and gold, but he came up big for the Royals yesterday with his first postseason save as Kansas City held on to beat the Orioles by a razor thin 1-0 margin.
