Oakland Athletics designated hitter Khris Davis (hip) is back in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Detroit Tigers. Davis did not play in Saturday's contest due to left hip soreness.

Khris Davis A Late Scratch Saturday

The Oakland Athletics made a late change to their lineup Saturday scratching designated hitter Khris Davis. He was initially slated to bat cleanup versus Tigers lefty Matthew Boyd but will instead tend to his lingering hip issue that's forced him from the lineup of late. It appears as a precautionary move for the scuffling A's […]

Matt Olson On The Bench Saturday

Oakland Athletics first baseman Matt Olson is sitting on Saturday versus Tigers lefty Matthew Boyd as Mark Canha will take his spot in the lineup. It's a good day for a rest after playing almost every day since returning 10 days ago from a broken hand. Olson has found his power strike lately with three […]

Unfortunately, catcher is still an utter cesspool when it comes to fantasy production, so don't convince yourself […]

H2H Category Streamers - Week 8 Waiver Wire

There are plenty of strategies that fantasy managers explore in hopes of getting an advantage over their opponent. Heavy lineup, heavy starting pitchers, no catcher, all (or mostly) reliever staff, no reliever staff, etc. Even if you play a balanced lineup, injuries can cause holes. A few weeks without a key player won’t kill a […]

Two-Start Pitcher Streamers: Week 8

So uh...wow. Week 6 absolutely sucked for this column. Like, I'm surprised I still even have a job after that one. Griffin Canning was the winner of the Week 6 column, but that's not saying much. Canning went 1-1, allowing six runs over 10 innings while striking out 13. The other four guys on that […]

Jesus Luzardo, A.J. Puk Making Progress

Oakland Athletics starting pitchers Jesus Luzardo (shoulder) and A.J. Puk (elbow) are both making progress from their injuries. Luzardo threw his first bullpen session on Tuesday.

Jharel Cotton To Begin Rehab Assignment Friday

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Jharel Cotton (elbow) will begin his rehab assignment with High-A Stockton on Friday. He figures to need a handful of starts before Oakland considers him for their rotation sometime in June. The 27-year-old right-hander didn't pitch at all in 2018 and went 9-10 with a 5.58 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 7.3 […]

Jurickson Profar, Robbie Grossman Struggling

Oakland Athletics second baseman Jurickson Profar and outfielder Robbie Grossman have been struggling this year, which means Chad Pinder and Mark Canha could see more opportunities. Pinder and Canha combined for 30 home runs, 34 doubles and 79 RBI in 663 at-bats in 2018. Profar had a career year last season in Texas, but he's […]

The Indians have finally turned to Oscar Mercado for help with their beleaguered outfield. With Collin McHugh struggling to a 6.37 ERA […]

Khris Davis Blasts Two Home Runs

Oakland Athletics outfielder Khris Davis ended his 21-game homer drought in style, blasting two home runs in the 6-5 loss to the Mariners.
