The Oakland Athletics lose Josh Outman
The A’s have lost rookie lefty starting pitcher Josh Outman for the next 12-18 months due to Tommy John Surgery. Outman was the #12 prospect in the A’s minor league system coming into this season according to Baseball America. Outman pitched in 14 games (12 starts) for the A’s this season and he is 3-1 with a 3.48 ERA and a 1.16 WHIP. It’s a shame that Outman hurt himself as he was really pitching well this season.
