  • 60-56-4 7th Place
    • Clubs fifth homer
      Nevin went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Angels.

      Advice: Nevin provided the Athletics' lone run with his solo shot off Griffin Canning in the second inning. Over six games since he rejoined Oakland's 26-man roster, he's gone 3-for-18 (.167) with two RBI. The infielder is slashing .213/.300/.348 with five homers, 12 RBI, 13 runs scored, four doubles and one stolen base over 160 plate appearances. While Nevin's hitting is nothing special, he'll have a chance to claim a regular spot in the lineup while Abraham Toro (hamstring) is sidelined for at least a month. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:09 pm

    • Aledmys Díaz goes 0-for-3 against Angels
      Aledmys Díaz went 0-for-3 with a strikeout as Oakland’s No. 9 hitter Monday against the Angels.

      Advice: The A’s got ridiculously lucky that someone took Jace Peterson off their hands last summer, so they’ll keep giving Díaz the occasional start in the hopes that lightning will strike twice. The 33-year-old Díaz is 3-for-27 since returning from a calf injury on May 28. He hit .229/.280/.337 last year in the first season of a two-year, $14.5 million contract. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:37 pm

    • Renfroe hits seventh home run in win Monday
      Hunter Renfroe went 1-for-2 with a walk and a solo home run against the Marlins on Monday.

      Advice: Signs of life? Renfroe’s home run was his seventh of the year. He’s still only hitting .198 on the year with a .652 OPS. With the Royals optioning Nelson Velasquez to the minors, Renfroe has to understand it’s getting to be that time where he might not keep his job if his numbers don’t improve.

    • Gabriel Arias ejected from game in ninth
      Gabriel Arias was ejected from Monday’s game in the ninth inning for arguing balls and strikes.

      Advice: Arias brought up the strike two pitch with umpire Jeremy Riggs after swinging and missing at strike three and was thrown out, even though he didn’t seem to say much at all. Arias had a double and a run scored in four at-bats on the night. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:07 pm

    • Available to pinch hit Monday
      Drury (illness) went through a workout before Monday's game against the Athletics and will be available off the bench, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

      Advice: Drury has been held out of the lineup since Saturday due to an upper respiratory virus, but he's close to returning to the starting lineup. Michael Stefanic draws the start at second base Monday with Drury available off the bench. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:33 pm

    • Report: Garrett Cooper signing with Orioles
      Sources told SportsGrid’s Craig Mish that Garrett Cooper is signing a minor league deal with the Orioles.

      Advice: The Orioles aren’t lacking for first base/DH/corner outfield options, so Cooper doesn’t seem like a great fit here, though it would give him a chance at a World Series ring. The Yankees were also supposed to be interested, but that was before they acquired J.D. Davis. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:27 pm

    • Tyler Black takes seat against right-hander
      Tyler Black is on the bench against a righty Monday for the first time since being recalled last week.

      Advice: Black sat against a lefty in his first day back in the majors, but he had started versus four straight righties since. Tonight, though, the Brewers wanted to give Christian Yelich a day off his feet and put him in the DH spot. Black is 3-for-11 with three walks since being recalled. The Brewers aren’t currently interested in putting Black anywhere other than first base or DH, so when Yelich or someone else besides Rhys Hoskins DHs, there’s no room for Black.

    • Signs minors deal with Orioles
      The Orioles signed Cooper to a minor-league contract Monday, Craig Mish of the Miami Herald reports.

      Advice: Cooper was cut loose by the Red Sox earlier this month after slashing just .206/.267/.299 between his time there and with the Cubs. The 33-year-old sports a solid .265/.333/.427 line for his career, but finding playing time on the big-league roster with the Orioles could be a tall task. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:40 pm

    • Absent from lineup
      Black is not in the lineup for Monday's tilt versus the Rangers.

      Advice: Black was in the lineup for each of the last four games against right-handers following his recall from Triple-A Nashville, but he'll begin this one on the bench as the Rangers send righty Michael Lorenzen to the bump. Rhys Hoskins is at first base and Christian Yelich will occupy the designated hitter spot. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:19 pm
