9 trade targets for the Colorado Rockies from the Oakland A’s

The Oakland A’s are a team that is in flux. Frankly, they often are because they have more turnover on their players more than most teams but this time, it’s a bit different. The A’s made the playoffs for three straight seasons from 2018 through 2020 and, while not making it into the playoffs in 2021, they still won 86 wins, which was 12 more games than the Colorado Rockies.

However, they let their manager, Bob Melvin, go to San Diego for nothing in return, despite them having a contract for him for 2022. The A’s also have made zero (and I mean zero) moves this offseason, other than letting their players leave as outfielders Starling Marte and Mark Canha both signed with the New York Mets before the lockout.

There also have been a lot of rumors swirling around about players that the Oakland A’s could look at trading this offseason or at the trade deadline in 2022.

Many of the Oakland A’s players could be fits for the Colorado Rockies

The Colorado Rockies need to address a lot of things on their team this offseason if they have any hope of gaining any ground in the win department. They already, on paper, are a worse team since they have lost Jon Gray and will almost certainly lose Trevor Story when the lockout ends. However, they still believe that they just need a few more pieces to be contenders in 2022.

The Rockies could address their issues with a few of these players with the Oakland A’s since, if history is any indication, the A’s will trade some of these players away sooner rather than later.

Here are nine players that the Colorado Rockies could (or should) look at as a trade target with the Oakland A’s.
