Athletics in Crisis, Kuroda-Grauer Rising | Oakland Athletics News
Description
The Athletics are in freefall, losing seven of their last ten games and getting crushed in a recent series sweep — injuries, shaky pitching, and a non-functional offense combine to make things look grim. Starting pitchers, including rookies and veterans, are crumbling under pressure, though rookie Gage Jump shows flashes of brilliance. Meanwhile, third baseman Josh Kuroda-Grauer is lighting up the majors with a .400+ average, possibly becoming a cornerstone instead of a trade chip. Manager Mark Kotsay’s future is in serious doubt — his winning streak since 2022? Zero. With a move to Vegas looming in 2028, the pressure is mounting. The trade deadline looms, and the A’s need a miracle — or a major overhaul — to avoid another disaster season.
