The Oakland Athletics Should Turn to Chris Bassitt

Another day another bullpen meltdown. This time it was a face we know all too well: Ryan Cook.

In yesterday’s 6-3 home loss to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Cook gave up three runs in the seventh inning on two hits and a walk.

Cook was once an all-star and a mainstay in a dominant bullpen. Now all we have come to expect from Cook are baserunners and blown leads.

A new reliever has emerged and it may be his time to step up. The Oakland Athletics should turn to Chris Bassitt.
