Player News
Kyle Farmer went 3-for-4 with two doubles in a loss to the Padres on Friday.
Farmer was responsible for all three hits for the Rockies in another ugly offensive performance for the Rockies. He can’t be traded until June, but the 34-year-old will definitely be a potential target due to his versatility this summer.
Gavin Sheets homered and walked in a blowout win Friday over the Rockies.
Fernando Tatis Jr. homered while going 2-for-4 with a stolen base in a victory over the Rockies on Friday.
Nick Pivetta struck out 10 over seven scoreless frames to help the Padres to an 8-0 win Friday over the Rockies.
Germán Márquez allowed six runs — five earned — over 4 2/3 innings while taking a loss to the Padres on Friday.
Miguel Andujar hit a two-run homer and drove in three in a loss Friday to the Mets.
Andujar has his first homer of the season with a two-run shot off Griffin Canning. He also singled in a run in the second, so he’s up to six RBI over the first 14 games. He’s hit well for the most part with a .310/.356/.405 slash, but it’s nice to see some pop from Andujar. Just keep in mind that the A’s have several young bats in the minors who could usurp the 30-year-old if he struggles.
