Luis Severino Sets the Tone Opening Day in baseball is defined by the presence of elite starting pitchers, each team deploying its best and healthiest options to set the tone for the season. For the Athletics, however, the challenge is compounded by a pitching staff that ranks among the worst in the league. Despite their young and talented lineup, the A’s face a steep uphill battle, with their projected WAR ranking 20th and a 16% chance of making the postseason. Yet, their offensive potential remains a key factor in their ability to stay competitive. The A’s lineup, while not dominant, has shown promise. Last season, they finished 10th in wRC+, with standout performances from players like Nick Kurtz, Shea Langeliers, and Brent Rooker. Their depth charts project them as the 14th-best offensive group in the league, just a win away from cracking the top 10. This potential makes them a dark horse in the playoff race, though their success will depend heavily on their ability to overcome a pitching staff that finished in the bottom five by WAR in 2025. Luis Severino, the A’s most experienced starter, is central to their hopes. Once a top-five pitcher by WAR in 2017 and 2018, Severino’s career has been marked by injuries and inconsistency. After missing nearly two full seasons due to shoulder and Tommy John surgery, he returned in 2022 with a mixed performance, struggling with recurring injuries. His 2024 season with the Mets was a proving ground, leading to a three-year deal with the A’s in December 2024. The move was surprising given the A’s reputation for frugality, but it aligned with their need for a reliable frontline starter. Severino’s first season with the A’s was complicated by the conditions of Sacramento’s minor league ballpark.#luis_severino #sacramento #athletics #nick_kurtz #shea_langeliers
