The A's are open to offers for their back-of-the-rotation pitchers, while their position players remain under long-term control. All-Star slugger Brent Rooker confirmed he will not be traded. He is secure in his role as primary designated hitter, aided by a five-year, $60MM extension. Tyler Soderstrom, previously a catcher and first baseman, is now playing left field to accommodate teammates but may be a trade candidate. Soderstrom has an average defensive rating and a solid batting average for the season.
Brent Rooker, currently performing well and under a five-year contract, has assured the A's organization he will not be moved before the trade deadline.
There is a possibility that the A's could explore trading some position players, particularly if they find value in their crowded lineup.
