Athletics Notes: Astros Series

By Tim Byrnes The Athletics concluded the 2026 season, losing 3-of-4 contests to the trash can-banging cheaters from Houston, while the Astros will continue on into the American League Playoffs, and play the Chicago White Sox, in the First-Round Wild Card Series.

Athletics Notes: Guardians Series

By Tim Byrnes The A’s were swept for the tenth time this season, losing the final three road games to the Cleveland Guardians. They scored five first inning runs over the first two games, but the Athletics couldn’t hold either lead.

Athletics Notes: Rays Series

By Tim Byrnes The Athletics were destined to have a difficult time in St. Petersburg against the AL-leading Tampa Bay Rays but being swept for the 11th time this season still hurts.

Athletics Notes: Rangers Series

By Tim Byrnes The recent changes in leadership by the Athletics have shown immediate results for the organization. David Forst lost his GM position with the team on August 7th, and the A’s have won two of the last three series.

Athletics Notes: Red Sox Series

By Tim Byrnes The Athletics finally began making serious moves to prepare for the move to Las Vegas in 2028. Pitching coach Scott Emerson was given his walking papers mid-July, and the results were seen immediately. Starter Jacob Lopez was stuck with a 6.83 era on the season when Emerson was canned and has sported […]
