This looks real dumb now that Leonys Martin is available

Don’t rule out getting both. A’s have literally no MLB-ready CF’s right now and Raj Davis is old and looks like he’s hurt, while Jaff Decker has been great, he’s also been running into walls and looking banged up. LaMarre could stay at AAA and Leonys could be the 5th OF. The current backup is….Matt Joyce. No.
Send Matt Olson down, Leonys to the bench. Boom. Leonys is a great COF option too, perhaps even better there than in CF. His bat is woeful, but he’s still a better defender than Joyce or Davis.

It’s a minor league transaction with CF Jaycob Brugman on the DL in AAA. The A’s are not going to pay $4 Million for Martin to sit in AAA when they can spend $35K and get LaMarre.

Honestly does Billy Beane just take in every former Red Sox player that Theo passes on?

He owes him for actually using Moneyball to win titles, not just be competitive 50% of the the time.
But also there’s been like 50 million A’s on the Red Sox in the last three decades, definitely goes both ways.
