Mitch Moreland Hits Injured List, Stephen Piscotty Reinstated
3 years agoOakland Athletics first baseman/designated hitter Mitch Moreland (undisclosed) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Sunday, and the team reinstated outfielder Stephen Piscotty (wrist) in a corresponding move, according to MLB.com. Piscotty was sidelined since June 15 but hadn't been much of a fantasy threat this year with his .217/.284/.357 slash line that came with four home runs, 11 RBI and 11 runs scored in 141 plate appearances. Moreland left Saturday's game without making a plate appearance due to an unspecified non-baseball issue. Manager Bob Melvin declined to expand on what that meant, other than to say that Moreland wouldn't be available to play on Sunday. Moreland also wasn't providing much fantasy value, as he was slashing .238/.286/.388 over 56 games this season.
