I'm not gonna try and kill anybody's play-off hopes this early in the season. If Braden and Anderson comeback healthy at some point this summer and you add youngsters Jarrod Parker and Brad Peacock then Bartolo might be expendable. Especially if you consider that he's going to be 39 next month and he really fell off in the second half last year. It might be worth considering cashing out at the halfway point if the A's can get a decent return.
