Welcome to Thursday A’s fans. Just a couple more days until baseball is officially back!
The team has slowly but surely rebuilt its homegrown position-player core since their last playoff drive. There are young, athletic, and exciting players on the major league team already and more should be on the way over the coming years. We’re seeing these guys turning into cornerstone players for the next A’s playoff team right before our very eyes, a situation that A’s fans are used to seeing but also some of the best parts of being a fan of this club. There have even been rumblings all winter that the Athletics could look to start extending those cornerstone people.
