Jesse Hahn started the season in AAA Nashville. Then, baseball things happened and now Hahn is roughly the A’s number three because baseball is so stupid and everyone is injured and frankly I’m not sure why I like this sport.
But maybe that’s not such a bad thing. Hahn’s upside is palpable, he was a bonafide #2 for about a year of his short career, and the stuff is still there. It was obvious after a wild 2016 that Hahn wasn’t quite right and needed to make a change, but the raw stuff never departed.
In his first start this season, Hahn looked different.
