SHAKEUP: Athletics Manager Mark Kotsay Calls for Major Roster CHANGES After Jacob Lopez Demoted

Manager Mark Kotsay isn’t holding back—he’s openly calling for big changes as the Athletics pitching staff flounders. With Jacob Lopez heading to Triple-A and buzz about prospect Kade Morris getting called up, it looks like the A’s rotation and bullpen could get a serious makeover. Will these moves finally give the A’s some much-needed stability on the mound? Host Kyle Morrison dives into fresh listener comments, cracks jokes about rival fanbases, and addresses rumors around the Las Vegas stadium project. There’s a preview of the pivotal series against the Chicago Cubs, spotlighting Gage Jump and Jeffrey Springs in can’t-miss pitching matchups. With the AL West wide open and the A’s offense showing flashes, can these shakeups spark a turnaround, or are more tough times ahead?
