Jordan Diaz, Abraham Toro To Have Edge At Third Base
10 months agoThe Oakland Athletics don't have a true established option at third base entering spring training, which could lead to somewhat of a competition in camp. Jordan Diaz and newcomer Abraham Toro figure to have the edge entering spring training, with Toro's switch-hitting ability creating the possibility for a platoon situation. Another name to watch is prospect Brett Harris, who is considered close to major-league-ready after reaching Triple-A Las Vegas in 2023. Diaz, 23, wasn't anything special on offense or defense for the A's last year hitting .221 with 10 homers and 27 RBI in 90 games. Toro, 27, only played nine big-league games with the Brewers last year. Harris, 25, might have the most upside given his contact-oriented approach and solid plate discipline, but the A's third base picture will be one to avoid in mixed fantasy leagues.
