  • Athletics' Drew Rom: Claimed by A's

    The Athletics claimed Rom off waivers Tuesday.

    The left-hander was designated for assignment by the Brewers over the weekend and will retain a 40-man roster spot with the A's. Rom was at the Triple-A level for Milwaukee and should report to Triple-A Las Vegas for his new organization. He has a 2.03 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 59:10 K:BB across 40 Triple-A innings this year and also gave up two earned runs on six hits with 11 strikeouts and four walks over 5.2 frames in the majors.

  • Athletics' Jeff McNeil: Records steal Monday

    McNeil went 2-for-4 with one RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Monday's 10-6 loss to the Rays.

    McNeil has logged a steal in three straight contests, doubling his total to six for the year. The veteran infielder is currently holding down a strong-side platoon role at first base, sharing the position with Tommy White in the absence of Nick Kurtz (thumb), who is out indefinitely. McNeil is batting .254 with a .643 OPS, four home runs, six steals, 36 RBI, 32 runs scored and 13 doubles over 357 plate appearances this season, though it's a positive sign that he has a clear path to playing time.

  • Athletics' Tyler Soderstrom: Picks up steal in loss

    Soderstrom went 1-for-5 with a double, one RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 10-6 loss to the Rays.

    Soderstrom was able to steal home after Carlos Cortes forced the Rays into an error when he swiped second. Soderstrom has yet to be held hitless in August, going 10-for-34 (.294) over nine games this month, adding seven extra-base hits and six RBI. For the season, the outfielder is batting .245 with an .812 OPS, 19 home runs, 56 RBI, 57 runs scored, 26 doubles, three triples and two steals over 107 games.

  • Athletics' Zack Gelof: Homer, double in return

    Gelof went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an RBI double and a second run scored in Monday's 10-6 loss to the Rays.

    Gelof missed a month due to a knee injury, and he wasted no time in making an impact with a pair of extra-base hits. He's had a decent campaign interrupted by a couple of injuries. On the year, he's batting .277 with an .823 OPS, 12 homers, 31 RBI, 43 runs scored, 12 doubles, one triple and eight stolen bases over 68 contests. Gelof looks poised for the lion's share of the playing time at third base, though Tommy White and Max Muncy will also be in the mix there as the Athletics' infield remains crowded.

  • Athletics' Jacob Lopez: Strong start goes to waste

    Lopez allowed two runs on five hits and a walk while striking out five over seven innings in a no-decision versus the Rays on Monday.

    Lopez put forth his longest outing of the season, and it was one of his better performances as well. The Athletics weren't able to hang onto the lead when the bullpen took over, as Seth Johnson and Jose Suarez combined to allow eight runs in the eighth inning. Lopez has allowed eight runs (seven earned) over 26.2 innings across five starts since he re-entered the rotation after the All-Star break. For the year, he's at a 5.38 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 75:44 K:BB through 82 innings across 19 games (16 starts). Lopez's recent pitching is encouraging, but he remains a risky option in fantasy due to a hitter-friendly home park. His next outing is projected to be at home versus the Rangers.

  • Athletics' Tommy White: Exiting starting lineup

    White is not in the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Rays.

    He had made 20 consecutive starts, but with Zack Gelof returning from the injured list, White's playing time against right-handers could dip moving forward. White has posted a meager .548 OPS with zero home runs, eight runs and one RBI in his first 21 games in the majors. The Athletics will deploy Gelof at third base and Jeff McNeil at first base Monday.

  • Athletics' Jonathan Ornelas: Jettisoned from 40-man roster

    The Athletics designated Ornelas for assignment Monday.

    The move corresponds with the Athletics activating Zack Gelof (knee) from the 10-day injured list. Ornelas was brought up by the Athletics on July 31 to provide depth both in both the infield and outfield and went 2-for-12 with one walk and seven strikeouts across six games.

  • Athletics' Zack Gelof: Activated from 10-day IL

    The Athletics activated Gelof (knee) from the 10-day injured list Monday.

    Gelof is ready to roll after missing the past month of action with a right knee laceration. The 26-year-old was in the middle of a nice bounce-back season before getting hurt -- he was slashing .273/.327/.476 with 11 home runs in 67 games -- and should regain his role as the Athletics' primary third baseman.

  • Athletics' J.T. Ginn: Logs quality start in no-decision

    Ginn did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Red Sox, allowing three runs (one earned) on five hits and two walks with two strikeouts over six innings.

    Despite throwing just 54 of 95 pitches for strikes, Ginn battled to earn his second straight quality start since returning from the injured list Tuesday. The 27-year-old has now logged a quality start in each of his three second-half outings, posting a 1.96 ERA over 18.1 innings during that span. He'll take a 3.41 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 107:53 K:BB across 121.1 innings this season into a home matchup with the Rangers next weekend.

  • Athletics' Hogan Harris: Secures 11th save

    Harris earned the save in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Red Sox, allowing one hit and one walk with one strikeout in a scoreless ninth inning.

    Harris was summoned after the Athletics took a one-run lead in the top of the ninth inning and stranded two baserunners to close the door. It marked back-to-back successful save chances for the 29-year-old, though he's yielded runs in three of his past five appearances. On the year, he owns a 3.63 ERA, 1.58 WHIP and 70:34 K:BB across 52 innings to go along with 10 holds and 11 saves.

  • Athletics' Taylor Rashi: Scooped up by A's

    The Athletics claimed Rashi off waivers from the Twins on Sunday and optioned him to Triple-A Las Vegas.

    The right-hander was designated for assignment by the Twins on Friday and will now take on a 40-man roster spot with a new organization. Rashi started the season with Arizona, surrendering four earned runs in three big-league appearances. He's seen the bulk of his action at the Triple-A level, registering a 2.49 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 49:21 K:BB over 43.1 innings.

  • Athletics' Carlos Cortes: Idle against lefty

    Cortes is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

    The left-handed-hitting Cortes finds himself on the bench for a fifth consecutive game, with the Athletics having faced left-handed starters in the last four of those contests. Southpaw Erik Miller is expected to work only an inning or two in a bullpen game for the Red Sox on Sunday, so Cortes could be summoned from the bench if a righty reliever takes over for Boston.

  • Athletics' Donovan Walton: Taking seat against southpaw

    Walton is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

    The left-handed hitter is on the bench for the fourth straight game, with the Athletics having faced lefty starters each time. Opener Erik Miller is likely to work only an inning or two for the Red Sox on Sunday, so Walton could still end up playing most of the contest.

  • Athletics' Hogan Harris: Collects save No. 10

    Harris gave up a run on three hits and a walk over 1.1 innings Saturday to record his 10th save of the season in a 7-3 win over the Red Sox. He struck out two.

    The southpaw got the final out of the eighth inning with the tying run on deck and the A's ahead 6-2 to qualify for a save chance, but Harris created his own jam in the ninth and escaped a bases-loaded, two-out situation by getting Eli White to line out to center field. Harris has been tagged for at least one run in three of his last four appearances, inflating his ERA from 3.09 to 3.71, but his hold on the closer job appears fairly secure -- no other A's reliever has picked up a save since Mason Barnett on June 25.
