• Armando Alvarez collects three hits in first start
    Armando Alvarez went 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI in his first big-league start Tuesday against the Angels.

    Advice: At age 29, Alvarez is no long-term regular for the A’s, but he might well prove to be an upgrade over Abraham Toro at third base. He had a .929 OPS in Triple-A this year after coming in at .960 for the Giants’ Triple-A club last year and .844 for the Yankees’ Triple-A club in 2022. Rotoworld Tuesday, 10:38 pm
