The Athletics have to activate their players from the 60-day disabled list, which means one A's player has to fall off the 40-man by Friday.
By the end of Friday, November 6, the Oakland Athletics must activate the seven players currently on their 60-day disabled list. With 34 other players counting against the 40-player limit, the A's must drop one player from the 40-man roster this week. Other clubs are approaching the same predicament, and the A's also might end up dropping other players in order to take advantage of their No. 6 priority in the offseason waiver wire to claim them.
