3 years agoThe Oakland Athletics are reportedly "willing to listen to trade inquiries on their veterans, including pitching stars Chris Bassitt, Frankie Montas and Sean Manaea,"according to a tweet from MLB Network's Jon Heyman. The trio were arguably Oakland's three best pitchers last season. Bassitt pitched to a 3.15 ERA, a 3.34 FIP, 159 strikeouts and 39 walks in 157 1/3 innings. Montas, meanwhile, posted a 3.37 ERA and a 3.37 FIP in 187 innings, notching 187 strikeouts while walking 57 batters. Manaea also finished with some quality run-prevention metrics, registering a 3.91 ERA and a 3.66 FIP in 179 1/3 innings. The left-hander finished with 194 strikeouts compared to 41 walks.--Ben Rosener - RotoBaller
