Ways to acquire elite young pitching for us within a year or two.....

 

1. Draft one at 4 this year or wherever we draft next year.

 

2. Trade of Shark

 

3. Trade of Starlin if Javy takes SS and a couple of Alcantara, Olt, Villanueva, and KB take over 2B and 3B.

 

4. Trade of Alcantara, Vogelbach, Candelario, or anyone else that we may not have a position for.

 

In other words, we're in pretty good shape to acquire some serious pitching.

this particular shot looks eerily wrigley like (that's olt and almora after olt's HR)

Olt with a 2-run home run

 

Alas, off a Single-A pitcher.

 

At least Michel Ynoa has great stuff and is a pretty good prospect (5th best in A's system per BA).

Almora is much bigger than I realized

 

your boy parks said the same thing. probably put some weight on. i remember someone posting some shirtless pic from his instagram and commenting that he had some muscle on him.

 

also remember that he's only 19.

He's 19? How is that possible? I was thinking 21.

He turns 20 in a month. He was drafted in 2012 at the age of 18.
