First-round pick Mark Mulder plied his trade at Triple-A while the following year’s first-rounder -- Barry Zito -- worked his way to Double-A. Fast-forward a year later and the two began to take the ball

Gage Jump is one of several intriguing pitching prospects in the A’s system. Jump, MLB Pipeline’s No. 3 A’s prospect and No. 40 in all of baseball, made his debut on Tuesday against the Mariners. The left-hander allowed four runs in five innings and struck out five Seattle hitters.

WEST SACRAMENTO – Before the Athletics broke camp in Spring Training, manager Mark Kotsay expressed excitement over the younger players left off the Opening Day roster who could make an impact later in the season.
