Athletics Analysis: Alex Wood will be starting in this game
Oakland’s 50-112 season of 2023 served as a stunning example of how disorganized the team is both on and off the field these days. This 2024 club has already achieved a significant victory, but on April 1, they oddly optioned Esteury Ruiz to Triple-A. It wasn’t an April Fools’ joke to demote the AL leader in stolen bases from the previous season (67), who hit 3-7 mostly out of the leadoff hole in the team’s first series. As a result, this week’s Athletics offense will appear rather different. After being shut out in their opening game of the season, they went on to score 11 runs in the following three games. With the Guardians, the team slashed .218/.303/.339 in the game. Find more articles like this with more MLB analysis.
