Manager Mark Kotsay has signed a contract extension with the Oakland Athletics through the 2028 season, with a club option for 2029. This announcement came on the first full-squad workout day of spring training, with Kotsay expressing his gratitude and excitement for the opportunity to lead the team forward.
Kotsay, who has been with the Athletics for four seasons, has guided the team through a challenging period that included a move from Oakland to Sacramento, California, with eventual plans to relocate to Las Vegas. Despite these transitions, the team showed improvement last season with a 19-win increase from the previous year.
