Diekman | 32 | Majors | LHRP | Very high | 1.5 | 3.2 | 1.6 | 1.6 | 1.6 | 2.6 | 3.6 | |
Maldonado | 32 | Majors | C | High | 0.5 | 5.6 | 1.3 | 4.3 | 3.2 | 4 | 4.9 | |

I think the A’s would move Luzardo before Puk, since Luzardo can’t seem to stay healthy.
I do like the idea of acquiring Merrifield during the A’s contention window of the next several years. He solved the hole currently at 2B and can play all over the diamond.
I can see a case for this. On a nitpicky note, the A’s probably don’t need Maldonado.
With Herrman off the DL, no the A’s don’t need Maldonado. He is great at calling a game and I’d feel more comfortable with him in the playoffs than Phegley.
