Justin Sterner’s season is over after knee surgery, sidelining him until 2027 — but for the Athletics, it’s just another step in their rebuilding process. The 29-year-old reliever, signed last November, showed promise with a 3.18 ERA and solid stats last year, but his recent outings spiraled before he was placed on the IL. Now, with a chondroplasty and likely a move to the 60-day list, he’ll miss the rest of 2025 — though his Super Two eligibility next year could make him a valuable asset in contract negotiations. For a team already struggling with the worst record in baseball, Sterner’s absence doesn’t shake their rebuild, as they’ve got plenty of young arms to evaluate in his place.
