Oakland Athletics

For the first time since July of 2022, the Oakland A's have secured a winning month. It's also fitting that the last two wins down in Anaheim featured the return of starters Ross Stripling and Paul Blackburn. The A's were 14-17 at the end of April, before injuries came for nearly their entire starting rotation. This month they sit at 13-7, and with the All Star break in the middle of the month, and two off-days next week, the A's only have four games remaining in July.
