Description

Today on Locked On A’s, we start with one of the most disrespectful snubs of the offseason: Tyler Soderstrom getting left off MLB Network’s Top 100 list. A guy who just put up borderline All-Star production, finished near the top of the league at his position in WAR, and is still in his early-20s somehow isn’t “top 100” while half the list is built on name value and vibes. We break down why this isn’t just a miss — it’s a perfect example of how the A’s still get treated like a small-market rumor instead of a real team with real stars. 

Then we shift into front office mode and rank the A’s biggest remaining needs this offseason, from pitching depth to late-inning relief to whether they need one more veteran bat for the Sacramento run-up. We close with the latest rumors floating around the league and what actually makes sense for this roster versus what’s just fan fiction. Bottom line: the A’s are closer than people realize, and the national media still hasn’t caught up.
