MLB news roundup The A's are currently in discussions with Sacramento regarding Sutter Health Park, a potential interim home for the team. The team is currently 1-5 on their young 2024 season, but is ahead of the Astros. The A’s are also in talks with Oakland and Alameda County officials on a possible lease extension at the Coliseum, but are far apart on terms. The deadline for these discussions is this summer and the A's delegation is headed to Sacramento to continue exploring Sutter health Park. Despite some poor games, the A‘s are ahead of both the White Sox and Rockies in power rankings.

It was walk off or lose last night once the A’s went into extras against the Red Sox. Sadly, the latter outcome became reality as the A’s fell to 1-5 on this young 2024 season. But hey—they’re tied with the Astros.
The A’s could definitely use a boost, and getting some of their big leaguers back from the IL wouldn’t hurt. AN’s Connor Ashford has coverage on some recent injury updates.
Double-A affiliates the Lansing Lugnuts have a player or two that could eventually be part of a winning A’s lineup. Their newly announced roster includes top prospect Henry Bolte. Get more details from Garrett Spain right here on AN.
The A’s are in “deep engagement” with Oakland and Alameda County officials on a possible lease extension at the Coliseum, but the parties are far apart on terms thus far, according to John Shea and Scott Ostler at the San Francisco Chronicle.
With the clock ticking and MLB commissioner Rob Manfred’s soft deadline of “this summer” fast approaching, the A’s delegation is headed to Sacramento today to continue exploring Sutter Health Park as the team’s potential interim home.
Some of the games we’ve seen over the past week have been real stinkers, but somehow the A’s are ahead of the White Sox and Rockies in the power rankings The Athletic put out yesterday. Cheer up, AN! Mason Miller was dynamite last night, and his arm is still attached to his shoulder.
