Stephen Piscotty had the perfect opportunity to prove his value to the Oakland A’s this season. With numerous departures due to free agency, he was assured of his starting role in 2021. The hope was that, with a guaranteed starting role, he would return to the form he showed in 2018.
Instead, Piscotty has been a disaster. After posting a career worst 75 OPS+ in 2020, he has not been much better this season.
