Base Knock Dynasty Baseball would like to welcome Athletics GM (Jonny) to the league as he takes over the Oakland Athletics franchise. A search was undertaken after the former Athletics GM, Jake, had been absent for over a month from his post. We are grateful to find an owner with fantasy experience with a love for baseball!

Oakland last made the playoffs in 2016 and has only one division title in the ten years of the league's existence. With three playoff teams (Los Angeles, Seattle, and Houston) already in the division, Jonny will have his work cut out for him.

Best of luck to you, Jonny. Be sure to let any of us know if you have any questions!

Thanks to Tim for the invite and all that. He's the lucky chump that gets to take all my n00b questions. (already has) I'll do my best Billy Beane impersonation and try to turn around the A's.
