The Oakland Athletics missed the postseason for a fourth straight year after finishing with a 69-93 record and fourth in the American League West.
Over the past few seasons, the Athletics have faced their fair share of difficulties with two of the past three seasons seeing them lose more than 100 games.
While the 2024 season did not get any better, it was also their last season playing in Oakland.
The Athletics will play the 2025 season in Sacramento, California while their new stadium is built in Las Vegas, and they will commemorate it with a special uniform patch.
“The A’s will wear a newly designed sleeve patch featuring a depiction of the iconic Tower Bridge, which is located behind the ballpark in right field, as well as the word ‘Sacramento’ in script, all in the team’s classic green and gold color scheme,” Mike Dixon of Vegas Sports Today wrote on X.

While the 2024 season was emotional for many Athletics fans, players, former players and personnel, the team will get a new start in Sacramento before eventually moving to their permanent destination of Las Vegas.
The Athletics have made a few notable acquisitions this offseason, including pitchers Luis Severino, Jeffrey Springs and T.J. McFarland, and third baseman Gio Urshela.
Some of these moves could benefit the team as they seek their first AL West title since the shortened 2020 season.
Things will look different for the Athletics in 2025, but the team has hopes of getting the organization back to a competitive level in their new home.
