WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Third baseman Gio Urshela and the Athletics have finalized a $2.15 million, one-year contract. Urshela can earn an additional $450,000 in performance bonuses for plate appearances. Third base was a top priority as the club builds its roster to play at least the next three seasons in West Sacramento, California. The A's hope to build a new ballpark and move to Las Vegas. The 33-year-old Urshela batted .250 with nine home runs and 52 RBIs last season for Detroit and Atlanta, earning $1.5 million.
