Soderstrom and Gelof are the biggest names here, but there never was much of a chance that either would crack the Opening Day roster. Both turned in good spring performances and could be a factor at some point during the 2023 season. Clarke split last season between Low and High A and could be ticketed to start at Double A.
Garcia had turned in some good performances and had some roster buzz, but ultimately didn’t make the cut. That could be good news for someone like Drew Steckenrider who remains in camp.
The A’s will enjoy their final off day of the Cactus League season Monday before returning to action against the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday.
