Matt Olson Launches 15th Homer Saturday In Colorado

Oakland Athletics first baseman Matt Olson went 1-for-3 with a walk, two RBI, two runs scored, and his 15th homer of the season in a win over the Rockies on Saturday. It feels like cheating to let Olson play in Coors Field, as the big first baseman has been on fire lately and has had […]

Lou Trivino Earns Eighth Save Saturday At Colorado

Oakland Athletics relief pitcher Lou Trivino pitched a scoreless ninth inning to earn his eighth save of the season Saturday at the Rockies.

Sean Murphy Homers In Win Over Rockies

Oakland Athletics catcher Sean Murphy went 3-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in a win over the Rockies on Friday.

Fantasy Baseball Injury Updates - Week 11

Elvis Andrus Producing From Nine-Hole In Batting Order

Oakland Athletics shortstop Elvis Andrus is succeeding in his first season in Oakland despite being buried near the bottom of the batting order most games. Andrus is batting a league-best .309 when hitting ninth and is tied with Nick Madrigal for the most extra-base hits when batting ninth. Despite his production, Andrus isn't a fantasy-relevant […]

Seth Brown Struggling Away From Oakland

Oakland Athletics outfielder Seth Brown started the season hot, but has cooled off in May as he put up a .183 batting average for the month. Brown has struggled mightily away from Oakland; he's batting just .113 in road games this season compared to .279 at home. Perhaps a road series in Colorado can cure […]
