Looking Forward to Seeing the A's

[Talkin' Baseball]

The A's are a team ready to rise. I'm looking forward to seeing some of their players. It looked like their shortstop, Jacob Wilson was going to be the rookie of the year- until the called up their 1B, Nick Kurtz. He has 27 homers and a 1.013 OPS in less than a full season. Their C leads the team in HR's with 29. They have a young, dynamic OF and Brent Rooker as DH. They have the #3 prospect in all of baseball (Leo DeVries) who is in AA at age 18 getting ready to play 2B or 3B. Granted they play in a bandbox of a minor league park, but they have 5 hitters with an OPS above .800 and 4 with over 20 HR. If they can get some pitching, they will be a force by the time they move into their new ballpark. They do have 2 MLB top 60 prospect LHP. Things could really come together for them in the next few seasons.
