## Resource

The Oakland A’s are in freefall — their offense and pitching are both cratering after a string of brutal injuries and losses. With key players like Brent Rooker and Zack Gelof sidelined, and Nick Kurtz’s thumb injury adding to the chaos, the team has been swept twice in a row and plummeted from 25th to 30th in power rankings. After losing 17 of their last 20 games, they’re now the most broken team heading into the All-Star break — and fans are bracing for a long, painful second half.
