  • Day off versus southpaw
    Brown isn't in the Athletics' lineup for Thursday's game against the Yankees.

    Advice: With lefty Nestor Cortes set to start for New York, Brown will retreat to the dugout to begin Thursday's contest. Esteury Ruiz will cover left field instead and bat in the leadoff spot. Rotowire.com 2 minutes ago
     
  • Sitting against lefty
    Noda isn't in the Athletics' lineup for Thursday's game against the Yankees.

    Advice: Left-hander Nestor Cortes will start on the mound for New York, forcing the lefty-hitting Noda to start Thursday's contest in the dugout. While he sits, Abraham Toro will start at first base with Max Schuemann and Darell Hernaiz covering second and third. Rotowire.com 5 minutes ago
     
  • Goes four-plus in rehab start
    Buehler (elbow) was charged with five runs (three earned) over four-plus innings in a rehab start with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday.

    Advice: He permitted seven hits, walked two and struck out five. The line for Buehler wasn't pretty, but keep in mind that the game was pitched at high altitude at Albuquerque, so the results were mostly secondary. Buehler got his pitch count up to 86 and averaged 94.1 mph with his four-seamer, which is down 1.1 mph from what he averaged during the 2022 season prior to Tommy John surgery. It's possible this was Buehler's final rehab start, but that determination hasn't been made yet. He could potentially make his season debut as soon as Monday in Arizona.

  • Jackson Merrill scratched from Thursday’s lineup
    Jackson Merrill was scratched from the lineup for Thursday’s game with right groin tightness.

  • Athletics recall Darell Hernaiz to Triple-A
    Athletics recalled SS Darell Hernaiz from Triple-A Las Vegas

    Advice: The A’s will bring up the 22-year-old infielder who is filling the roster spot for Zack Gelof. Herniaz has struggled at the major league level where he’s slashed .103/.156/.103 in his 17 games this season. Rotoworld 29 minutes ago
     
  • Claimed by Yankees
    The Yankees claimed Tonkin off waivers from the Mets on Thursday.

    Advice: After being DFA'd for the third time this month Monday, Tonkin will now move from Queens to the Bronx and nab a spot on a 40-man roster. The 34-year-old right-hander has allowed six earned runs across nine innings between the Twins and Mets this season and will likely be limited to low-leverage situations with the Yankees. McKinley Moore was designated for assignment in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com 33 minutes ago
     
  • Yankees designate McKinley Moore for assignment
    Yankees designated RHP McKinley Moore for assignment.

    Advice: The 25-year-old recently was on the injured list with a knee injury but was activated a couple weeks ago. He hasn’t pitched in the majors this season, but did last season with the Phillies where he pitched 3 1/3 innings and allowed seven earned runs on five hits. Rotoworld 34 minutes ago
