Today in Baseball History:
- 1976 - The Oakland Athletics make an unusual trade by sending manager Chuck Tanner to the Pittsburgh Pirates for catcher Manny Sanguillen and $100,000. Sanguillen will play only one season in Oakland before returning to Pittsburgh. Tanner will lead the Pirates to the World Championship in 1979.
Best of Twitter:
- Interesting...
Jed Lowrie, previously represented by Brodie Van Wagenen and CAA, is now with Casey Close and Excel, sources tell The Athletic. Lowrie’s change of agents, prompted by Van Wagenen’s move to the #Mets, likely will slow down any push by the #Athletics to re-sign him.
