Happy Wednesday A’s fans, This past weekend, the MLB Draft introduced the stars of tomorrow. One of the most thrilling Home Run Derbies in recent years followed the next day, leading into last night’s “Midsummer Classic,” which showcased many of the game’s brightest stars. Athletics’ catcher Shea Langeliers singled and walked in the American League’s […]

Welcome to Tuesday A’s fans! It’s All-Star Game Day! But before we get to the game, the Athletics made a move yesterday afternoon, letting go of pitching coach Scott Emerson and promoting bullpen coach Dan Hubbs to take over for the rest of the year: The move couldn’t come soon enough. The team is currently […]
The Athletics announced that pitching coach Scott Emerson has been relieved of his duties. Bullpen coach Dan Hubbs will take over on an interim basis for the remainder of the campaign. Emerson got his gig in June of 2017. He was the club’s bullpen coach prior to that but he got a new title when […]
This past weekend, the Athletics added 21 players to the organization through the 20-round MLB Draft, which kicked off this week’s All-Star festivities in Philadelphia. Of the A’s 21 selections, 11 were pitchers, and all but two played college baseball. The majority of MLB teams drafted high school players in the first few rounds and […]
No A’s game today but we still got something fun to watch tonight. It’s Derby time as eight of the best sluggers in the sport will attempt to win the title this year. No Athletic in this one but it’s still always fun to watch these guys and they usually put on a show. This […]
Jonah Heim could be the perfect trade candidate for the New York Yankees to acquire at the MLB trade deadline. A recent report by USA Today’s Bob Nightengale suggested that both Yankees’ catcher trade targets (Ryan Jeffers, Hunter Goodman) are likely to stay put this summer. Goodman makes sense because he’s a franchise star in […] The post New York Yankees Proposed Trade for Athletics’ Jonah Heim Revealed appeared first on HEAVY .
Bill Caudill celebrates his 70th birthday today. For those unfamiliar, Caudill was the Blue Jays’ answer to B.J. Ryan back in the 1980s. He broke into the majors with the Cubs, then found his stride as one of baseball’s elite closers in Seattle, before moving to Oakland, where he racked up 36 saves in a […]
Welcome to another week A’s fans! The first half is officially in the books. The Athletics’ season began well enough as the club was in first place as late as May. Unfortunately a rough June and July has seemingly sunk the A’s playoff hopes as the club’s nine-game losing streak has dropped them to 41-55, […]

“It’s the injuries” is a common excuse for why the A’s, once 38-38 and in the thick of a weak AL West race, have cratered, fallen, and can’t get up. “Wait until we’re back at full strength” is a commonly heard game plan for letting a season in which 2 games over .500 gets you […]
The A’s couldn’t manage to escape the South Side with a win, getting swept by the White Sox 9-1 to wrap up the first half. Righty J.T. Ginn was off today. After the A’s gave him a quick lead in the first he coughed that right back, allowing six runs in the first inning to […]
The first half is officially in the books, and the Chicago White Sox are in first place. Sam Antonacci and Braden Montgomery homered, Miguel Vargas and Kyle Teel had multi-hit performances, and Noah Schultz threw five mostly stress-free innings as the Good Guys picked up their 50th win of the season, 9-1 over the Sacramento […]
Noah Schultz opened the game by giving up a single, erasing it with a double play, and then giving up a solo shot to Shea Langeliers before he could record the third out. Still, Schultz didn't walk anybody, and he threw 13 of his 16 pitches for strikes. If a guy who came into the game with 29 walks in 48 major league innings wanted positive reinforcement for staying in the strike zone, the rest of the game rewarded him for it.

The Athletics claimed infielder Donovan Walton off waivers from the Angels, as announced by both teams. The A’s already had an open 40-man roster spot, so no further transaction was required. Walton has hit .319/.354/.505 over 97 plate appearances for Los Angeles this season, while seeing time in the field as part of the Angels’ […]
With a victory, the White Sox will enter the All-Star break in first place in their division, for the first time since 2021. They could accomplish that without a victory too, but it would require help from the Marlins against the Guardians, and a win would also give the Sox their sixth sweep of the season. It will surprise no one present here that all five of their prior sweeps came at home as well. The post First pitch: White Sox vs. Athletics appeared first on Sox Machine .
