The A's aren't going to just give Olsen away. Hes really really good and require more than just Voit to get him.I mentioned maybe going after Buxton a page or so back. I think Matt Olsen would be a perfect fit at 1st and in our lineup/stadium, if we decide to trade Voit or can’t resign Rizzo. Last year of arbitration (I believe) and the A’s won’t pay him. You may even be able to pry a starter/mid rotation arm like a Manaea who’s also about to become a free agent soon.

maybe Boone takes a ballplayer for his right hand man and not an analytics nerd.
Thinking we'd get him AND a pitcher for Voit would be giving him away.never said they’d just give him away.

but where we'd fit him in the lineup will be the challenge. will he be willing to hit 7th or down ? do we bat Gallo that low and stack righties again ? do we trade Gallo ? think alotta decisions depend whether we sign Rizzo or not.
Gary could stay, i'd give his bat 1 more year. his defense screwed his head up too much. still think dude is too talented to just throw away. Yanks need a bench coach, that maybe can do a lil mentoring with Gary. name i just thought of was Sandy Alomar Jr, maybe Boone takes a ballplayer for his right hand man and not an analytics nerd. a guy who knows the game and can help a guy like Gary out. just a though but seems like it would do some good.
lineup just seems too stacked with guys who are used to be in the top of the lineup. ego's are gonna have to be checked to make all this work.
He'd be a nice fit but the cost will be high.
If Dominguez, Vlope, Peraza, and Gleybar aren't on the table then we're not getting Olson. Other teams will offer better packages.
Yea im ok dealing one of the SS's. Just saying if all of those guys are unavailable, we have no shot at getting Olson. He's really good and other teams will have strong offers.And for that reason, I’m out.
They can choose one of Volpe and Peraza that’s it. And can go anywhere else prospect wise.
Can’t have a guy nicknamed The Martian and then trade him before you know if he’s the real deal.
