    The Oakland Athletics have offered salary arbitration to free agent outfielders Josh Willingham and David DeJesus.

    Both players have until Nov. 30 to decide whether to accept the offers. If they decide to sign elsewhere, Oakland would receive draft-pick compensation next June.

    Willingham is one of six players who is an exception to baseball's free-agent compensation rules this winter, under the terms of the labor deal signed by MLB and the union on Tuesday.
