  • Summary

  • The A’s relocation saga has dominated discussions for months, but today, it’s time to put it to rest. In this episode, I reflect on how covering the drama surrounding John Fisher and Major League Baseball has shifted the focus away from what truly matters—baseball. I address the challenges of seeking honest dialogue, the dismissiveness from certain media figures, and the parallels between how A’s ownership treats fans and how some within the A’s community treat differing perspectives. With this chapter closed, it’s time to turn our attention back to the game we love.

    As Spring Training heats up, the A’s still have major roster questions, particularly at third base and the fifth starter spot. I spotlight two under-the-radar players who could seize those roles—pitching prospect Mason Barnett, whose strikeout ability and improved control make him a strong contender, and third baseman CJ Alexander, a power-hitting lefty looking to make an impact. With these position battles taking shape, the focus is back where it belongs—on the future of the A’s on the field.
