The Athletics have announced their season-opening rotation featuring Luis Severino, Jeffrey Springs, JP Sears, Osvaldo Bido, and Joey Estes. Severino, who has dealt with injuries but had a solid year with the Mets, is set to be the veteran anchor after signing a record three-year, $67MM deal. Springs comes off Tommy John surgery with a strong return, while Sears offers experience. Bido and Estes round out the rotation, each with their own challenges and potential, signaling a mix of youth and experience for the upcoming season.
Luis Severino has been almost exclusively a starter since his debut in 2015, recently signing a major contract with hopes to anchor the Athletics' rotation.
Jeffrey Springs, after recovering from Tommy John surgery, returned to form with a solid performance for the Rays, leading to a trade to the Athletics.
JP Sears has consistently been part of the Athletics' rotation, with a combined ERA of 4.46 over his last 64 starts, contributing to their depth.
Osvaldo Bido had a strong 3.41 ERA in limited time last year, showing promise for his role in the starting rotation this season.
