## Resource

The Athletics are in freefall after a brutal 14-1 loss, exposing a collapsing pitching staff that’s been struggling all season — even when they get solid starts, the bullpen can’t hold it together. Meanwhile, Jacob Wilson’s hot hitting is going unnoticed as the team desperately needs more offense. And with Nick Kurtz sidelined by injury and illness, the A’s are losing a key offensive weapon — and finding a replacement in this slump is tougher than it looks.
