The A's currently have the lowest payroll in the league and rely heavily on young and inexperienced players.Pitching has been a major concern for the Oakland Athletics this seasonManager Mark Kotsay of the Oakland Athletics takes out Shintaro Fujinami against the Los Angeles Angels at RingCentral ColiseumAs poor as the offense has been, pitching has been a real problem area for the Oakland Athletics.The club has an unfathomable 8.08 team ERA after 21 games. It is a full 2.54 runs higher than the number two-ranked Kansas City Royals (5.54). They have conceded 10 or more runs in nine of their first 21 games. They rank last in the MLB in hits allowed (214), runs (173), walks (110), WHIP (1.75), opponents average (.290) and home runs allowed (39).The A's also ranked last in the run differential with a -100 run differential. That is significantly higher than the second-worst Kansas City Royals (-50).The Athletics have traded some of their star pitchers over the previous 12 months. Frankie Montas was shipped to the New York Yankees in exchange for prospects. Cole Irvin, who finished with a 9-13 record last year, is now with the Baltimore Orioles.After a commendable 2-1 Opening Day win over the Los Angeles Angels, fans had some optimism about this season. Unfortunately, any positivity surrounding the club dissolved soon after that. The A's will look to bounce back against the Rangers on Sunday before a four-game series versus the Angels.
