I think a trade of a long-controlled piece like Almonte would more be more likely for a piece like Marcell Ozuna, who is controlled for 4 more seasons if I remember correctly.
For a one-year rental, I don't think Almonte would be on the table. Especially not for a guy who is a good-but-not-great impact guy.
Something like Cheslor Cuthbert + Jorge Bonifacio, I could buy (though I don't know that Bonifacio fits what the A's want from hitters, Cuthbert's patience at the plate DOES).
