As reported by John Shea of SFGate.com, the Oakland Athletics plan to attend Tim Lincecum’s showcase this upcoming Friday. Like the many other teams that will be attendance, the A’s will be most interested in whether or not Lincecum has been able to overcome his left hip surgery. But, are the A’s seriously considering trying to sign this veteran starting pitcher? Would he even be a good fit for the team?
Ultimately, it may not be a question as to whether or not he would be a good fit. At this point, acquiring Lincecum may be more of a necessity.
