The Oakland Athletics have a good history in recent years of making deals that bring in hot, young prospects that turn out to be big time players for the team. In July of last season, the A’s completed a trade that may have brought in the next prospect in that line.
On July 28th, the A’s traded away super utility man Ben Zobrist, whom they acquired in another trade from the Tampa Bay Rays in the previous offseason, to the Kansas City Royals, and got pitchers Aaron Brooks and Sean Manaea in return.
