After addressing their need for starting pitching earlier this winter, the Athletics can now check third base off their offseason wish list. The A’s landed the experienced third baseman they were looking for on Sunday by signing veteran infielder Gio Urshela to a one-year contract.

Third base was a top priority as the club continues to build its roster to play at least the next three seasons in West Sacramento, California, before hopes of building a new ballpark and moving to Las Vegas.
