The A's will have a chance at some measure of revenge this weekend in Oakland. The series features a match-up of two red-hot teams off to solid starts in their quests to get back to the post-season. http://athletics.scout.com/2/1283111.html 2047 Chris Biderman http://athletics.scout.com/2/1283111.html Fri, 12 Apr 2013 20:12:00 GMT 0 304 Oakland athletics The 2013 regular season is finally here. Can the Oakland A's make another run into the post-season? Chris Biderman previews the A's 2013 squad. http://athletics.scout.com/2/1279773.html 2047 Chris Biderman http://athletics.scout.com/2/1279773.html Mon, 01 Apr 2013 17:40:00 GMT 0 304 Oakland athletics The success of the 2012 Oakland A's offense was in large part due to the production of the team's outfielders. The A's are returning largely the same group of outfielders in 2013. Can they carry the team back to the post-season? Will any new outfielders emerge at the big league level for Oakland? How does Chris Young fit into the picture? Chris Biderman addresses these questions and more. http://athletics.scout.com/2/1266338.html 2047 Chris Biderman http://athletics.scout.com/2/1266338.html Tue, 12 Feb 2013 21:47:00 GMT 1 304 Oakland athletics OAKLAND - The Oakland A's have been the walkoff kings all season long and they added another dramatic win to their resume with a stunning, three-run ninth-inning rally to defeat the Detroit Tigers, 4-3. The A's and Tigers will now face-off in a decisive Game Five of the ALDS on Thursday at the Coliseum. http://athletics.scout.com/2/1228883.html 2047 Melissa Lockard http://athletics.scout.com/2/1228883.html Thu, 11 Oct 2012 07:47:00 GMT 0 304 Oakland athletics The Oakland A's and the San Diego Padres are the identical Lane cousins of baseball. They may play in separate leagues, but they look awfully similar. Both teams feature rosters in transition and have instability with their ownership situations. Both have struggled on offense this season and are well under .500. And both are coming off of three-game sweeps. Chris Biderman previews the match-up. http://athletics.scout.com/2/1195301.html 2047 Chris Biderman http://athletics.scout.com/2/1195301.html Fri, 15 Jun 2012 18:52:00 GMT 0 304 Oakland athletics The Oakland A's weren’t able to build any momentum after picking up a series victory in the four-game set over the first place Texas Rangers last week. Instead, they restarted interleague play in Arizona by getting swept by the D-Backs and knocked to a season-low nine games under .500. http://athletics.scout.com/2/1194440.html 2047 Chris Biderman http://athletics.scout.com/2/1194440.html Tue, 12 Jun 2012 22:18:00 GMT 0 304 Oakland athletics In the second half of our two-part interview with Oakland A's Director of Player Personnel Billy Owens, we discuss a number of the A's young offensive players, as well as the impact of some of the veteran position players, including Manny Ramirez. http://athletics.scout.com/2/1168208.html 2047 Melissa Lockard http://athletics.scout.com/2/1168208.html Fri, 16 Mar 2012 04:05:00 GMT 1 304 Oakland athletics Although the Oakland A's signed Manny Ramirez on Monday, their DH situation is far from settled. With Ramirez set to serve a 50-game suspension at the start of the season, the A's will need to look to other options at that position for at least the first two months of the season. We take a look at the battle inside... http://athletics.scout.com/2/1160807.html 2047 Melissa Lockard http://athletics.scout.com/2/1160807.html Wed, 22 Feb 2012 06:38:00 GMT 1 304 Oakland athletics Not since Nick Swisher and Milton Bradley were roaming the Oakland A's outfield has the team benefited from good production from its outfielders. The A's are hoping that will change in 2012. We take a look at the A's outfield situation, which now features a number of new faces. http://athletics.scout.com/2/1158959.html 2047 Melissa Lockard http://athletics.scout.com/2/1158959.html Wed, 15 Feb 2012 22:34:00 GMT 1 304 Oakland athletics The Colorado Rockies have traded outfielder Seth Smith to the Oakland Athletics. The writing was seemingly on the wall for Smith to be moved once the club brought in Michael Cuddyer. The move comes shortly after the Rockies agreed with Smith on a $2.4 million salary for 2012.  http://rockies.scout.com/2/1149855.html 2047 Nick Shlain http://rockies.scout.com/2/1149855.html Wed, 18 Jan 2012 18:54:00 GMT 1 266 Colorado rockies The narrative of the Oakland A's off-season has been constantly changing. The message shifted once again on Monday, as the team acquired yet another veteran position player.

They have gotten some surprising efforts from some of their players, but they haven’t had consistent starting pitching all season long. http://rockies.scout.com/2/861698.html 2047 Brad Weiss http://rockies.scout.com/2/861698.html Fri, 01 May 2009 04:00:00 GMT 0 266 Colorado rockies Here is a May recap for the Colorado Springs Sky Sox. In this feature, we name a Batter and Pitcher of the Month for the Sox, as well as name a few prospects for Honorable Mention. http://rockies.scout.com/2/759267.html 2047 Brad Weiss http://rockies.scout.com/2/759267.html Tue, 03 Jun 2008 05:44:00 GMT 0 266 Colorado rockies As the mid-season has come to a close, RockiesInsider.com takes a look at the top-50 prospects in the Rockies organization. This is a mid-season evaluation of the players who we believe are the top players in the organization, and will serve to help us as we make our pre-season Top-50 rankings this fall. Here are prospects 11-20. http://rockies.scout.com/2/666437.html 2047 Brad Weiss http://rockies.scout.com/2/666437.html Thu, 09 Aug 2007 05:09:00 GMT 0 266 Colorado rockies The Colorado Springs Sky Sox have been a great feeder system to the Colorado Rockies during the past few seasons, and the 2007 roster is full of prospects who are ready to make the jump to the Major Leagues this season. With a nice mix of veterans and first time Triple-A players, the Sky Sox should make some noise in the Pacific Coast League in 2007. http://rockies.scout.com/2/633676.html 2047 Brad Weiss http://rockies.scout.com/2/633676.html Sun, 08 Apr 2007 04:03:00 GMT 0 266 Colorado rockies The Colorado Rockies farm system got off to a successful start to the 2007 season, as three of the four teams who played won their respective ballgames. Eric Young led the way for Modesto from his leadoff spot, and the Rockies affiliates showed they have some great arms in their bullpens.
