The A's youth movement finally appears to be in full effect – and third baseman Matt Chapman, catcher Bruce Maxwell and outfielder Jaycob Brugman are clear evidence of that. While Maxwell has been back and forth between Oakland and Nashville multiple times over the last couple of seasons, Chapman and Brugman both were called up in June to make their major league debuts for the A's.
I'd spoken with all three players before during stops at Stockton, Nashville, the Arizona Fall League and in spring training, but I wanted to check in and see how the trio has been adjusting to life in the majors.
