Morning all!<\/p>\n
The A\u2019s are slumping right now but got back into the win column yesterday in the series finale and they\u2019ve fallen to third place in the AL West. Their still only 2 1\/2 games back in the division though and with the recent issues with the starting rotation the club has begun exploring upgrades to bolster the staff.<\/p>\n

One name that we\u2019ve now heard the club is interested in is Kansas City starter Kris Bubic. A pending free agent after the season the left-hander would help a beleaguered rotation that has lost Luis Severino<\/a> and Aaron Civale<\/a> to the IL in recent days. Even before those arms got injured the starting group could have used an upgrade.<\/p>\n It\u2019s not quite trading season but indications are the A\u2019s plan on being buyers. Bubic won\u2019t be the last name connected to the A\u2019s but he\u2019s certainly an interesting name to monitor.<\/p>\n Have a great Monday A\u2019s fans.<\/p>\n A\u2019s Coverage:MLB News and Interest:Best of X:<\/p>\n ICYMI:<\/p>\n Is Rooker finally turning things around?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Morning all!
