Elvis Andrus holds an enviable position on the Oakland A’s. He is one of the few players without a real threat to his job security, especially with Chad Pinder on the Injured List. Vimael Machin could, in theory, play at short, but he has not exactly proven that he can hit at the major league level. Andrus is safe at short for now.
