It's April 21st. Welcome in. This is MLB News Today, where baseball meets AI. The Oakland Athletics pitching staff sits near the bottom of Major League Baseball this season, with a team ERA of 4.78. Folks figured this would be their weak spot after skimping on arms in the off season, and sure enough, they've already optioned Luis Morales from the opening day rotation and shuffled the bull pin, like calling up lefty Brady Basso while sending Mason Barnett back to Triple A. It's early, but the big club hasn't clicked on the mound or at the plate yet. Down in the minors though, their top pitching prospects are straight fire, dominating hitters and building serious hype. Take number two, prospect Jamie Arnold, the first round lefty in AA. In three starts, he's punched out 20 guys over 13 innings with a solid FIP showing bad luck on balls in play, not his stuff. In there's number three, Gage jump in Triple A, another left-hander with a 2.61 ERA,

16 strikeouts in 10 innings, ramping up his. Pitch counts each outing, A's fans could see him in Oakland real soon. And don't sleep on 20-year-old Wayne Lynn, number four in double A, mowing down batters with a 2.25 ERA and 22Ks in 16. Innings, he's got that blix-no-bive and could climb fast as he fills out. These three lefties form a nasty trio in the system. And when they hit the majors, the A's rotation could turn heads quick.
