Gurriel is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

There has been nothing from the team's beat writers to suggest this is anything other than a routine day off after Gurriel played both ends of Saturday's doubleheader. It's just Gurriel's second absence from the lineup this season. Abraham Toro will start at first base and bat seventh.

Olson went 3-for-4 with a triple, two RBI and one strikeout in Saturday's win against the Padres.

Olson had been struggling prior to the Athletics' recent hiatus as he had gone 0-for-6 with five strikeouts heading into the layoff. However, he's been dominant in the two games since Oakland returned to play as he drew three walks Friday prior to tallying three hits Saturday.

Abreu went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Royals.

Abreu's first-inning homer, his 13th, extended his hitting streak to 19 games and elevated him to the top of the RBI leaderboard with 40. During the 19-game stretch, Abreu is batting .397 with 10 home runs and 28 RBI -- the most RBI in a 19-game hitting streak since Mike Piazza had 32 RBI in the first 19 games of a 21-game hitting streak in 2000.

Tellez went 3-for-5 with two runs scored and a walk in Saturday's 9-8 loss to the Red Sox.

In the fourth inning, Tellez singled and scored on a Travis Shaw double. Tellez drew a leadoff walk in the sixth and came around to score on Vladimir Guerrero's three-run blast. The 25-year-old Tellez has been on fire lately, going 10-for-22 (.455) with a homer, three RBI and five runs scored in his last eight games. He's slashing .283/.354/.535 with seven homers, 20 RBI and 17 runs scored through 32 contests overall.

Guerrero went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run, an additional run scored and a pair of walks in Saturday's 9-8 loss to the Red Sox.

Guerrero's big hit Saturday came in the sixth inning off Red Sox reliever Josh Taylor. The 21-year-old Guerrero also walked in the seventh and scored on a Lourdes Gurriel single. In 39 games, Guerrero has six homers, 20 RBI and 20 runs scored while slashing .259/.338/.455 across 160 plate appearances.

Dalbec went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's 9-8 win over the Blue Jays.

Dalbec hit the third Red Sox homer of the second inning, a line drive that just cleared the Green Monster and barely stayed fair. He later got aboard with a single and scored on a Rafael Devers double in the fourth. Dalbec now has two homers among his three major-league hits. He's up to three RBI and three runs scored in six games.

Wade was recalled by the Twins on Saturday, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Wade spent several days at the alternate training site, but he'll return to the major-league club Saturday. The 26-year-old saw inconsistent playing time during his first stint with the team this year and hit .200 with a double and one RBI over 15 at-bats.

White went 2-for-2 with a two-run double, two walks and a run in a win over the Rangers on Friday.

White left the 0-for-9 skid he walked into Friday's resumption of play with in the dust via his stellar performance, churning out his third multi-hit effort in his last six starts. The rookie is still slashing just .179/.254/.377 for the season, but there are undeniable signs he's starting to make inroads against big-league arms. Factoring in Friday's production, White owns a .348/.423/.609 line with three doubles, one home run and 10 RBI over 26 plate appearances in his last seven contests.

Tellez went 1-for-2 with a walk and a solo home run in the second game of Friday's doubleheader against the Red Sox.

After going 2-for-3 with an RBI during a win in the matinee, Tellez took Chris Mazza deep in the fourth inning of the nightcap for his seventh homer of the year, getting the Jays on the board in an eventual 3-2 loss. The 25-year-old continues to make lots of loud contact, and over his last 10 games Tellez is slashing .370/.455/.741 with three home runs and seven RBI.

Mountcastle went 3-for-3 with a homer, three RBI and two runs scored in a 6-3 win over the Yankees in Game 2 of Friday's doubleheader.

Mountcastle opened the scoring with a two-run homer in the second inning. He added an RBI single in the fifth inning and came around to scored on a Pat Valaika double. Mountcastle is up to three homers, nine RBI and seven runs scored through 50 plate appearances this season. His strong hitting has earned him a near-everyday role in left field.
