Although eligible McGwire has not been elected despite over 500 career home runs and briefly holding the single-season home run record (70). Some see McGwire's exclusion as a sign that the Hall is hesitant to elect players suspected of using performance-enhancing drugs as McGwire was suspected of steroid use (he later admitted his use in 2010).{{cite web|url=https://www.espn.com/mlb/hof07/news/story?id=2725461|title=Gwynn, Ripken elected to Hall of Fame|access-date=February 28, 2011|date=January 10, 2007|work=ESPN.com|publisher=ESPN Internet Ventures|archive-date=January 12, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160112133054/http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/hof07/news/story?id=2725461|url-status=live}}{{cite web|url=http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20100111&content_id=7902132&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb|title=Hall of Fame voters weigh in on McGwire|date=January 11, 2010|last=Newman|first=Mark|work=MLB.com|publisher=Major League Baseball|access-date=February 28, 2011|archive-date=March 9, 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110309070646/http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20100111&content_id=7902132&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb|url-status=live}}{{cite web|url=http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20100111&content_id=7900244&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb|title=McGwire opens up about steroid use|date=January 11, 2010|last=Leach|first=Matthrew|work=MLB.com|publisher=Major League Baseball|access-date=February 28, 2011|archive-date=January 13, 2010|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100113160829/http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20100111&content_id=7900244&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb|url-status=live}} The Athletics have made nineteen selections in the supplemental round of the draft and have made the first overall selection once: in the first draft in 1965.{{cite web|url=https://www.baseball-reference.com/draft/?overall_pick=1&draft_type=junreg|title=Amateur Draft: First overall picks in the MLB June Amateur Draft|access-date=February 28, 2011|work=Baseball-Reference.com|publisher=Sports Reference LLC|archive-date=June 14, 2010|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100614213155/http://www.baseball-reference.com/draft/?overall_pick=1&draft_type=junreg|url-status=live}}
The Athletics have failed to sign three first-round draft picks, although they did not receive a compensation pick for any of them. The first such player not signed was Pete Broberg in 1968. The A's also failed to sign both of their draft picks in 1979, Juan Bustabad and Mike Stenhouse.{{cite web|url=http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/history/draft/index.jsp?feature=decade1960s|title=First-Year Player Draft Draft Report: 1960s|work=MLB.com|publisher=Major League Baseball|access-date=February 28, 2011|archive-date=June 14, 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080614043354/http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/history/draft/index.jsp?feature=decade1960s|url-status=live}}{{cite web|url=http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/history/draft/index.jsp?feature=decade1970s|title=First-Year Player Draft Draft Report: 1970s|work=MLB.com|publisher=Major League Baseball|access-date=February 28, 2011|archive-date=April 15, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190415234015/http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/history/draft/index.jsp?feature=decade1970s|url-status=live}} The Athletics have had ten compensatory picks overall since the first draft in 1965.

- {{note label|Value|V|V}} Through the 2012 draft, free agents were evaluated by the Elias Sports Bureau and rated "Type A", "Type B", or not compensation-eligible. If a team offered arbitration to a player but that player refused and subsequently signed with another team, the original team was able to receive additional draft picks. If a "Type A" free agent left in this way, his previous team received a supplemental pick and a compensatory pick from the team with which he signed. If a "Type B" free agent left in this way, his previous team received only a supplemental pick. Since the 2013 draft, free agents are no longer classified by type; instead, compensatory picks are only awarded if the team offered its free agent a contract worth at least the average of the 125 current richest MLB contracts.{{cite news |url=https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/7269300/major-league-baseball-players-owners-sign-new-labor-agreement |title=MLB players, owners sign agreement |work=ESPN.com |date=November 23, 2011 |access-date=November 23, 2011 |archive-date=November 23, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111123185025/http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/7269300/major-league-baseball-players-owners-sign-new-labor-agreement |url-status=live }} However, if the free agent's last team acquired the player in a trade during the last year of his contract, it is ineligible to receive compensatory picks for that player.{{cite news |url=https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/7270203/baseball-new-labor-deal-truly-historic-one |title=How the new CBA changes baseball |first=Jayson |last=Stark |author-link=Jayson Stark |work=ESPN.com |date=November 22, 2011 |access-date=November 23, 2011 |archive-date=November 24, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111124225428/http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/7270203/baseball-new-labor-deal-truly-historic-one |url-status=live }}
