Ariel Prieto was scheduled to be the Vermont Lake Monsters’ pitching coach, but the A’s had him stay in Oakland to work with Cespedes. Luckily, the A’s had an ace-in-the-hole ready to step in and take Prieto’s place in Vermont. http://athletics.scout.com/2/1216616.html 2047 Donald Moore http://athletics.scout.com/2/1216616.html Fri, 31 Aug 2012 05:42:00 GMT 1 304 Oakland athletics BURLINGTON, IA - In 2009, left-hander Julio Ramos was one of the most promising pitching prospects in the lower levels of the Oakland A's system. Tommy John surgery stopped Ramos' progress in its tracks in 2010, however. Now healthy, Ramos is on the comeback trail and the early results have been encouraging. http://athletics.scout.com/2/1206859.html 2047 Bill Seals http://athletics.scout.com/2/1206859.html Tue, 31 Jul 2012 04:15:00 GMT 1 304 Oakland athletics In part two of his conversation with Oakland A's Director of Player Development Keith Lieppman, Bill Seals discusses several members of the 2012 Burlington Bees' roster and finds out what the plans are for the youngsters from the A's 2012 draft class. http://athletics.scout.com/2/1206478.html 2047 Bill Seals http://athletics.scout.com/2/1206478.html Mon, 30 Jul 2012 04:44:00 GMT 1 304 Oakland athletics On Monday, the Vermont Lake Monsters kick-started their 2012 season.

However, the team struggled to develop top prospects out of their Latin American program for much of the 2000s, something the team vowed to change in the winter of 2007. Since that time, the A's have increased their investment in that program and are starting to see results. http://athletics.scout.com/2/924705.html 2047 Melissa Lockard http://athletics.scout.com/2/924705.html Mon, 30 Nov 2009 18:29:00 GMT 0 304 Oakland athletics The Oakland A's 2009 Instructional League camp is in its final two weeks.
