We’re back in the studio for BLEAV in A’s #20! Tyler and Devin break down the A’s recent games, including the win over the Rays where Jacob Lopez delivered a gem on the mound.

Plus, we highlight promising young talent like Lawrence Butler, Brent Rooker, Shea Langeliers, and rising prospects in the minors that have this A’s team on the verge of something special. We also go Around the League for MLB updates, preview the upcoming schedule, and close with our favorite A’s memory.

The A’s made the biggest move of the MLB Trade Deadline — and it might change the franchise forever.

In Episode 18 of BLEAV in A’s, Tyler and Devin (with Luke on vacation) react to the massive trade that sent Mason Miller and JP Sears to the Padres in exchange for Leodalis De Vries, MLB’s No. 3 overall prospect, and three promising pitchers.

It’s the kind of deal you rarely see at the deadline — a reliever flipped for a potential superstar. We dive into everything it means for the future of the A’s in Sacramento, plus cover all the major trades around the league and the team’s dominant 16-7 win over the Nationals.

We dig into:

Who is Leodalis De Vries and why he’s a big deal

The MLB Trade Deadline is almost here, and the A’s have big decisions to make.

In Episode 16 of BLEAV in A’s, Tyler, Luke, and Devin break down what the front office might do as July 30 approaches — including potential trades involving Luis Severino, Luis Urías, and Miguel Andújar.

With the team sitting at 42–61 and the pitching staff near the bottom of the league, the A’s could look to sell off short-term vets and retool around their young offensive core. But what happens if they can't find any takers — or if the offers are underwhelming?

We dig into: Severino’s future after bashing the A’s ballpark

Urías’ trade value & Gelof’s looming return

Andújar’s rehab assignment & potential fits (Padres?)

Will the A’s package players for better returns?

Are Mason Miller & JP Sears off-limits?

The BLEAV in A’s crew is back for Episode 14!

Tyler, Luke, and Devin recap a tough week for the Athletics — dropping three straight games (1 to the Guardians, 2 to the Rangers) — and dig into what might be the only bright spot of the season: Nick Kurtz.

After hitting .583 this week and extending his hit streak to 9 games, the 22-year-old first baseman is putting up video game numbers. Is he already the best 1st baseman in Major League Baseball?

We break it all down — from Kurtz’s elite approach against Jacob deGrom to his league-best OPS among rookies — and ask if he’s the new cornerstone of the franchise.
