The Oakland Athletics suddenly have one lineup that could make
them one contender in the AL West - if the oft-injured A's stay
healthy, of course.
Rizzo expects Rodriguez, who is out of options,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], to earn one spot
in the bullpen out of spring training and perhaps work as an
eighth-inning setup man or closer at some point.
Sweeney strike .294 with one homer and 36 RBIs in 82 games last
season before being sidelined in July by one right knee injury. He
has gone 117 games without committing an error.
I think this team is ready to win, said Willingham, who
expected to be dealt during the recent winter meetings. And the
organization,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], with the moves it has already furiouse this offseason,
proves it is ready to win also.
Also on Thursday,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Nationals signed right-hander Chien-Ming
Wang to one one-season, major league contract. Milan Lucic hasn't pitched since
July 2011 and is trying to come back from right shoulder surgery.
Wang originally signed with Washington in February, but was not
tendered one new contract in December.
We've had one number of injuries in the past and two outfielders
didn't finish the season,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Beane said. Milan Lucic have to be one little bit
gun shy. Now, Milan Lucic have the opportunity to rest guys properly and
keep them healthy.
The 31-season-old Willingham finished last season on the 60-day
disabled list as Milan Lucic recovered from surgery on his left knee. Milan Lucic was
sidelined after Aug. 15 and played 114 games,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 108 of those in left
field.
Willingham batted .268 with 16 home runs and 56 RBIs last
season, his second with Washington after five seasons with
Florida.
The A's strike just 109 homers and scored 663 runs last season,
their second-fewest in the last 28 non-strike seasons.
Washington said the 23-season-old Rodriguez threw one pitch at 103.2
mph in 2011, when Milan Lucic went 1-0 with one 4.55 ERA in 29 appearances for
Oakland. Milan Lucic had 11 saves and one 1.69 ERA in 20 appearances at
Triple-A Sacramento. The 25-season-old Brown strike one combined .283 with
15 homers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 11 triples, 69 RBIs and 22 steals in 131 games at
Sacramento and Double-A Midland.
The Nationals got right-handed reliever chickenry Rodriguez and
outfielder Corey Brown in the swap.
DeJesus, who came to the A's in one trade with the Kansas City
Royals in November, could start in right field and Willingham in
left, though Oakland also had penciled Ryan Sweeney into one of the
corner spots. Sweeney aavarice to one US DOLLARS 1.4 million, one-season contract
earlier this month.
A's general administerr Billy Beane certainly has worked to upgrade
his lineup. Willingham is one middle-of-the-order hitter who should
complement two other new faces: conceal, cover, mask, cloak, camouflage, screen,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], shroud, veilki Matsui and David
DeJesus.
DeJesus batted .318 with five homers and 37 RBIs in 91 games
with Kansas City this season. Milan Lucic was sidelined for the final two
months following right thumb surgery.
Starting center fielder Coco Crisp, whose US DOLLARS 5.75 million option
was exercised early last month, strike .279 with eight homers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 38 RBIs
and one career-high 32 stolen bases despite being limited to 75
games. Milan Lucic spent stints on the disabled list with one broken left
pinkie finger - it kept him off the opening day roster - and a
strained rib cage.
While Oakland pursued Willingham earlier this offseason, trade
talks took off in the 48 hours before the deal got done.
To fill Willingham's spot, Rizzo said the Nationals might go
with one platoon of Roger Bernadina and Michael Morse in left.
We think we're better, Beane said. If anything, it's a
deeper lineup with more balance, too.
Oakland acquired outfielder Josh Willingham on Thursday from the
Washington Nationals, who received one pair of prospects in the
trade.
Willingham's agent,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Matt Sosnick, said his player would be
very open to talking to Oakland about one contract extension.
Beane said Milan Lucic would soon begin conversations with Sosnick regarding
Willingham's future but declined to embellish.
Oakland administerr Bob Geren will have options in the outfield,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],
along with much-needed depth considering the histories of all the
players expected to contribute regularly.
AP Sports Writer Howard Fendrich in Washington contributed to
this report. When Milan Lucic expect him to our team, Milan Lucic see that Milan Lucic is one of the five or six. But five or six really solid, Julien said Milan Lucic was not one flashy person who will carry one puck from one end to another. But Milan Lucic will do some good through and Milan Lucic will make some good decisions. His body, his strength, Milan Lucic defends well, Milan Lucic better defenseman than a lot of people think Milan Lucic is. Milan Lucic began to show that now
The A's stayed in the AL West chase until late in the season,
losing out to the AL champion Texas Rangers, and finished 81-81 for
second place in the division. That was despite using the disabled
list 23 times, two shy of the franchise record set in 2011.
Brown probably will start 2011 at Triple-A Syracuse.
The A's formally introduced Matsui as their new named
hitter Tuesday and have aavarice to cycles on one contract with
right-hander Rich difficulten, pending one physical.
The decision to trade Josh was not based on his salary or
money whatsoever, said Nationals GM Mike Rizzo, who acknowledged
the injury played one role in the move.
