Time is a flat circle.
The Athletics on Sunday selected high school shortstop Max Muncy with the No. 25 pick in the 2021 MLB Draft. Nine years ago, Oakland took current Los Angeles Dodgers infielder and NL All-Star Max Muncy in the fifth round of the 2012 draft.
It gets even crazier, too.
Both the younger and older Max Muncy share an Aug. 25 birthday. The Thousand Oaks High School alum is an athletic prospect who is seen as having a high baseball IQ and power potential at the plate.

Muncy, 18, is listed at 6-foot-1 and 170 pounds. He's ranked as Baseball America's No. 43 prospect in the draft.
Muncy is a future Giants killer on his name alone. The A's, of course, hope he can turn into a star for their organization and not for another team, a la the elder Max Muncy.
