An early look at the return on A’s deals that sent Bassitt, Olson, Chapman and Manaea elsewhere
OAKLAND — Mark Kotsay wants nothing to do with a comparative analysis on the trades that sent Chris Bassitt, Matt Olson, Matt Chapman and Sean Manaea elsewhere as part of a payroll purge.
Former A’s first baseman Matt Olson is hitting .452 with the Braves through his first 12 games. AP photo The prize catch in the Olson deal for the A’s is Pache, a 6-foot-1, 215-pound glider in the outfield with seemingly unlimited range, a plus throwing arm and a natural feel for center field. He is being urged by Kotsay to play with enthusiasm and flair. Pache has a ways to go to be a consistent offensive threat. He’s hitting .243 with a home run and five RBIs, but circled the bases on an outfield error in Tampa Bay and had an opposite-field home run as well.
Chapman hit just .202 with 27 home runs and 72 RBIs while recovering from hip surgery last season. So far with the Blue Jays, Chapman is hitting .226 with two home runs and seven RBIs, with one of his home runs coming against the A’s last weekend. He received his third Gold Glove Award with the A’s in town and Kotsay standing with him at the ceremony.
