Athletics Will Not Trade Donaldson, Willing To Listen On Pitchers
By Jeff Todd [November 5, 2014 at 4:55pm CST]

The Athletics do not intend to deal away star third baseman Josh Donaldson
despite speculation that he could be made available, Ken Rosenthal of FOX
Sports reports. That confirms what Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle
reported (via Twitter) the day after the club’s season ended. However, the
team will be willing to listen to trade interest in pitchers such as Jeff
Samardzija and Scott Kazmir, according to Rosenthal.

Donaldson has emerged as one of the best third basemen and most valuable
players in the game. While he is undoubtedly a bargain as a Super Two player
with four more years of control, he will not be cheap. MLBTR contributor Matt
Swartz projects that Donaldson will land $4.5MM this year, and that number will
only continue to rise.

Donaldson’s rising cost led to suggestions that Oakland may consider dealing
him. But while he would undoubtedly bring back a huge return, his departure
would leave a gaping hole in any plans of near-term contention. As Rosenthal
notes, A’s GM Billy Beane believes the team is still primed to reach the
postseason next year.

As for Oakland’s staff, deals involving pitchers on expiring contracts are
obviously more palatable, though Rosenthal hastens to add that the A’s are not
shopping anyone and mentions that a trade deadline deal (if the team falls out
of contention) could be the likelier outcome. Both Samardzija (projected $9.5MM
arb salary) and Kazmir ($11MM salary with an additional $2MM luxury tax hit for
his signing bonus) are cheap for their recent results, and the former in
particular would be a popular trade target. In fact, MLBTR’s Steve Adams
explained in his recent outlook for the A’s offseason that a deal involving
Samardzija or Kazmir could make a good bit of sense.
