1B	1	Yonder Alonso
2B	1	Jed Lowrie Sidelined Jed Lowrie could get his ailing right knee checked out by a doctor in Houston on Monday. Lowrie tweaked his knee while trying to avoid an inside pitch on Friday and has now sat out two straight games. It doesn't at this point seem like more than a day-to-day ailment, but it sounds like more will be known Monday. Franklin Barreto is at second base again Sunday. Jun 25
	2	Adam Rosales
SS	1	Marcus Semien 60-Day DL Marcus Semien (wrist) will begin a rehab assignment with High-A Stockton on Friday. Working his way back from surgery to repair a fractured right wrist, Semien has been slowly but surely upping his workouts this month and is nearly ready to test things out in game action. It's unclear how many rehab games he'll require, but it figures to be more than a handful given that he's been sidelined since mid-April. Jun 19
	2	Chad Pinder 10-Day DL Athletics placed INF Chad Pinder on the 10-day disabled list with a left hamstring strain. Pinder sustained the injury during Friday's victory over the White Sox. Franklin Barreto has been recalled in a corresponding move and will take over as the club's primary shortstop, at least on an interim basis. Jun 24
	3	Franklin Barreto
3B	1	Matt Chapman 10-Day DL Matt Chapman (knee) is expected to be released from the hospital Sunday. Chapman is battling an infection in his left knee and the A's are expected to have a better idea later Sunday when he'll be ready for activation. He could return when first eligible on Thursday. Jun 25
LF	1	Khris Davis
CF	1	Rajai Davis
	2	Jaycob Brugman
	3	Jake Smolinski 60-Day DL Jake Smolinski (shoulder) has been hitting off a tee. He was also able to shag fly balls for the first time on Thursday. The plan is for Smolinski to resume throwing during the first week of July. Smolinski is still a long ways off, but he's making progress. Jun 15
RF	1	Matt Joyce
	2	Matt Olson
DH	1	Ryon Healy
Starting Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
S	1	Sonny Gray
	2	Kendall Graveman 10-Day DL Kendall Graveman (shoulder) could resume throwing off a mound next week. Graveman has been playing catch of late with no issues and is slated to have a flat ground throwing session by the end of this week. He won't make it back before the end of June, but the righty is coming along. Jun 19
	3	Sean Manaea
	4	Andrew Triggs 10-Day DL Andrew Triggs will be given a cortisone injection in his ailing left hip. Triggs has some structural damage in the hip but is hoping to avoid surgery. If the cortisone injection provides enough relief as hoped, he'll be allowed to resume throwing. That said, it's going to be a while even in a best-case scenario. Jun 18
	5	Jesse Hahn
	6	Jharel Cotton Sidelined Jharel Cotton left Friday's start against the White Sox due to a blister on his right thumb. The issue doesn't appear to be major, so he may not require a trip to the disabled list. Before the blister cropped up, Cotton fanned three over five shutout innings against the White Sox. Jun 23
	7	Chris Bassitt 60-Day DL Chris Bassitt (elbow) took part in an "up-and-down" bullpen on Wednesday. Up-and-down, in this case, does not refer to the quality of the bullpen, but rather the action of simulating innings by sitting and getting up. He is coming back from Tommy John surgery and is unlikely to be ready to contribute until some time in the second half of the season. Jun 21
	8	Daniel Gossett
Relief Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
R	1	Santiago Casilla
	2	Sean Doolittle
	3	Ryan Madson
	4	Ryan Dull 10-Day DL Ryan Dull (knee) could resume throwing off a mound later this week. Dull has recovered from a right knee strain more slowly than expected, but it appears he's finally making some nice progress. It's unclear when he might be game-ready. Jun 20
	5	John Axford
	6	Liam Hendriks
	7	Daniel Coulombe
	8	Michael Brady
	9	Bobby Wahl 10-Day DL Bobby Wahl (shoulder) was recently given a cortisone injection. His ailing right shoulder has responded well to the shot, so it sounds like he could resume throwing soon. Wahl has missed nearly a month with a strained shoulder. Jun 19
	10	Josh Smith
