It would have been a cool experience if we were able to move up all the way through, and then finally that day we’re all in the lineup, in the infield.
MESA, Ariz. – Matt Olson probably won’t get to line up in the same big league infield as Addison Russell, but in January, he did line up next to Russell nonetheless.
Olson, a first baseman ranked as the A’s best power-hitting prospect, served as a groomsman in Russell’s wedding in Pensacola, Fla. Also in the wedding party were shortstop Daniel Robertson and outfielder Billy McKinney.
