Rotation: Gray, Kazmir, Chavez, Pomeranz, Milone Verdict: This is pretty well set. If Pomeranz or Milone falters, Straily probably comes back. Maybe we see Arnold Leon, or maybe Francis steps into the rotation. Otherwise, I doubt anything major will happen unless Beane targets someone at the deadline. (Arizona's Brandon McCarthy is the guy AN would like to grab.) Bullpen: Doolittle, Johnson, Gregerson, Abad, Otero, Rodriguez, Francis Verdict: They're not getting the job done in save situations, but what can you do? Doolittle, Abad and Otero have been great. Rodriguez and Francis, two legit Major Leaguers, are as good as you can hope for out of your Nos. 6 and 7 relievers. And the $15 million combo of Johnson and Gregerson will be given every opportunity to succeed. Evan Scribner and Savery are waiting in Triple-A for the first injury, but otherwise you should get used to this relief corps until Eric O'Flaherty returns from his Tommy John recovery. Ryan Cook is still theoretically coming back at some point, but I'll believe it when I see it. Catchers: Jaso, Norris Verdict: If you want to replace one of them, you'll have to get through me first. If someone gets hurt, Stephen Vogt comes up. No changes coming here. First base: Moss, Blanks Verdict: This has already been addressed for now. Beane won't rush into replacing Blanks without giving him a chance first. Third base: Donaldson Verdict: MVP Shortstop: Lowrie Verdict: If he's healthy, he's playing. His current neck injury sounds like a minor day-to-day problem. Outfield: Cespedes, Coco, Reddick, Gentry, (and Moss, Blanks as backups) Verdict: On defense, they may be the best four-man unit in baseball. On offense, Cespedes is hitting like an All-Star (.835 OPS), Coco and Gentry are getting on base (both above .360 OBP) and running wild (combined 13-for-14 on steals), and Reddick is finally finding his stroke (last eight games: 11-for-34 , three homers, only five strikeouts). This group is set. That leaves one position on the diamond ... Second base: Sogard, Punto, Callaspo Verdict: Oy. There's work to be done here. Eric Sogard is fielding well, but he's not hitting at all. Nick Punto isn't hitting much better than Sogard, and he hasn't been anything special in the field. Alberto Callaspo was hitting well , but he's cooled off and his OPS is down to .688 on the season; he's also a terrible defender at second. The numbers: Sogard: .175/.250/.216, plus-4 DRS Punto: .225/.295/.275, neutral-0 DRS Callaspo: .240/.347/.341, stop playing him at first Sogard and Punto have actually combined to provide marginally positive value in terms of bWAR, so it's not that they're hurting the team. It's just that the A's can do better. The first step would be figuring out who goes. 全文 http://www.athleticsnation.com/2014/5/18/5726824/athletics-billy-beane-kyle-bla nks-eric-sogard-nick-punto 縮網址 http://goo.gl/SMyf9k 響尾蛇幾乎出局了 兩個交易頻繁的球隊不知道會不會再續前緣 目前大概就是缺一個2B 一個穩定的4號SP 一個穩定的CL 投手的部分 Brandon McCarthy 回鍋似乎不錯阿~ 勝負1W6L不好看但是內容還OK 回覆有人提到 Huston Street 今年已經13個救援點 WHIP ERA 都不到1 二壘手的部分原作者有提到 Brian Dozier、Asdrubal Cabrera、Emilio Bonifacio、 Aaron Hill、Martin Prado 甚至老同學 Cliff Pennington 回覆有人提到 Didi Gregorius、Daniel Murphy 期待比恩在交易大限前的動作阿~ --
