My prediction on the next players to go from the 40-man as space is needed, updated in quasi-real time.
My previous number one, Alex Hassan, is gone.
- Arnold Leon: He can be outrighted, I think, and the A's didn't seem to seriously consider giving him a shot to stick in the majors when they called him up for his one game in Anaheim earlier in the year.
- Angel Castro: The newest A's reliever could be the newest ex-A's reliever pretty quickly, depending on how things go.
- Ryan Cook: If he doesn't figure out how to throw a baseball where he wants to throw a baseball, he might find himself flat-out cut.
