The Athletics have finalized their 28-man roster for this week’s showdown with the division-rival Astros. Here’s how things shake out:
Right-Handed Pitchers
- Chris Bassitt (Game 1 starter)
- Mike Fiers
- Liam Hendriks
- Frankie Montas
- Yusmeiro Petit
- Joakim Soria
- Lou Trivino
- Jordan Weems
- J.B. Wendelken
Left-Handed Pitchers
- Jake Diekman
- Jesús Luzardo
- Sean Manaea (Game 2 starter)
- T.J. McFarland
- Mike Minor
Catchers
Infielders
Outfielders
Like their opponents, the A’s will add a reliever to their ALDS roster at the expense of an infielder. The hard-throwing Weems is on the team, while rookie Vimael Machin will be left off for this series.
Let’s go Oakland!
Bummer that we’re all going to miss Chapman. He’s a fantastically fun player to watch, man.
I have the A’s in three, regardless.
You obviously haven’t paid attention for the past nearly 50 years. The A’s grossly underachieve in the post season. Remove 1989 and it’s nearly 50 year of embarrassment
You mean 4
Lol…
*Now* I do!
