The Oakland Athletics have a strong track record of trading star players, but Billy Beane tells Peter Gammons that he "just cannot see us trading [Sonny] Gray or [Josh] Reddick."

It is worth noting that Beane made a similar comment about trading Josh Donaldson last offseason before sending him to the Toronto Blue Jays.

"Trading Gray is not something I think we could do," Beane explained to Gammons. "We have to put a representative product on the field, and continue to dream we get a ballpark. We should have good pitching, with Gray, Jarrod Parker, Kendall Graveman, Jesse Hahn, Chris Bassitt, maybe Sean Manaea during the season."
