Next Steps: Complete Offseason Guide, Predictions for the Oakland A’s

Back-to-back ALDS losses to the Tigers, despite fighting hard and forcing each series to the maximum five games, could force the A's to re-evaluate whether they have enough impact talent to get deeper into the playoffs. 

The continued development of a talented and young starting rotation, including Sonny Gray, Jarrod Parker and Dan Straily, could push them to the next level. But it's likely that general manager Billy Beane will try and add impact talent while the the core of the team remains in their prime and the window of contention is still open.
