Player Notes

  • Keeps raking in Monday's loss
    Toro went 3-for-4 with a double in a loss to the Rangers on Monday.

    Advice: Toro authored one of two multi-hit efforts for the Athletics on the night, accomplishing the feat for the fifth time in the last six games overall. Toro has also reached safely in nine of the last 10 contests overall, a stretch during which he boasts a stellar .455 average, 1.197 OPS and impressively modest 13.9 percent strikeout rate.

  • Not in Tuesday's lineup
    Langeliers is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rangers.

    Advice: Langeliers went 3-for-5 with a triple, a home run and three RBI against Miami on Saturday but is otherwise 0-for-10 over his past four contests. Kyle McCann will step in behind the plate to catch for righty Ross Stripling on Tuesday. Rotowire.com 7 minutes ago
  • Drives in run in return
    Ruiz (wrist) went 0-for-2 with an RBI sacrifice fly in a loss to the Rangers on Monday.

    Advice: Ruiz returned after a one-game absence due to a wrist injury he suffered Saturday and was able to contribute an RBI for the third consecutive contest. The 25-year-old outfielder has demonstrated a slight uptick in pop during the first month-plus of the season and appears to have moved past the wrist issue, given he drew the start in left field Monday.

  • Likely to make start Wednesday
    Leiter has joined the Rangers in Oakland and would appear likely to make a start during Wednesday's doubleheader versus the Athletics, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Michael Lorenzen will start one of Wednesday's games in Oakland. The Rangers have not yet announced a starter for the other contest, but it's reasonable to now assume it will be Leiter. The young right-hander struggled in a spot start in Detroit last month in his major-league debut in yielding seven runs over 3.2 frames, but he's been sharp at Triple-A Round Rock with a 2.84 ERA and 37:8 K:BB over 25.1 innings. While there is obvious risk, Leiter represents an intriguing streaming option Wednesday. He's a possibility to make at least one additional start, as well, while Nathan Eovaldi (groin) recovers.

  • Out with shoulder injury
    France was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday with a shoulder injury, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: The right-hander was demoted to Triple-A on April 25 and surrendered three runs over 3.2 innings during his lone start prior to the injury. France is without an official timeline for his return but could be out "a while," per Rome. The injury won't immediately affect the Astros' rotation but is a big hit to their depth.
