Projecting the A's 2019 rotation behind Mike Fiers, Marco Estrada

All offseason long, we heard about the A's desire to improve their starting pitching. While it remains to be seen if Oakland truly upgraded the rotation from last year, manager Bob Melvin at least has some options to fill out his five slots.

A's general manager David Forst said in January, he expects veteran right-handers Mike Fiers and Marco Estrada to be the top two starters. That leaves a handful of pitchers competing for the final three spots in the rotation.

Brett Anderson will almost certainly earn one of those spots to start the season.
