A.J. Griffin gave up three runs on seven hits over six innings Sunday in a no-decision against the Royals.
It was another solid outing from Griffin, who has allowed a combined seven earned runs in his past four starts. He finished with five strikeouts and was removed after the sixth inning at 105 pitches. Griffin didn't factor in the decision, but continues to pitch well this season. He has a plus matchup with the Astros on Saturday.
May 19 - 7:43 PM
A.J. Griffin struck out eight in firing seven innings of one-run ball Monday in a 5-1 win against the Rangers.
Griffin allowed six hits and no walks, his only blemish a Mitch Moreland solo homer in the second. The youngster continues to display excellent control, but he's going to have to fix a recent propensity toward the long ball, having watched seven balls sail over the fence in his last five starts. Griffin takes a 4-3 record and 3.48 ERA into Sunday's outing against the Royals.
May 14 - 2:34 AM
A.J. Griffin was solid but was hurt by the longball Wednesday, giving up four runs – three earned – over 6 2/3 frames in a loss to the Indians.
Griffin was spotted a 3-0 lead, but he allowed a pair of runs in the fifth (one of them unearned) before serving up homers to Nick Swisher and Carlos Santana in the sixth. It’s the third time in his last four outings that he’s been taken deep twice. Despite the recent dinger issues, Griffin still boasts a solid 3.83 ERA and 1.21 WHIP for the season. He’ll face the Rangers next.
May 8 - 10:05 PM
A.J. Griffin fired seven shutout innings Friday in a 2-0 win over the Yankees.
Griffin scattered six hits and a walk while striking out four batters. He was pulled after Brett Gardner reached on a leadoff bunt in the eighth, but Sean Doolittle was able to keep the Yanks off the board. It was an encouraging bounce-back performance by Griffin, who had allowed 11 runs combined over his previous two outings. He'll bring a 3.79 ERA into a start against the Indians next Wednesday.

Scott Sizemore
D.L.
Athletics transferred INF Scott Sizemore from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list.
It's a procedural move to open up a 40-man roster spot. Sizemore underwent his second major knee surgery in two years last week and will not play this season.

Josh Reddick (wrist) will try taking batting practice on Friday.
If it goes well, he'll be cleared to begin a rehab assignment. Reddick discussed last week the possibility of surgery on his right wrist, but he's been able to take dry swings with no issues. If he doesn't suffer any setbacks, it seems possible that he could be activated sometime next week.

Brett Anderson
D.L.
Brett Anderson was diagnosed with a navicular stress fracture of his right foot and will be shut down for four weeks.
Rough news for Anderson, who just can't seem to stay healthy. The 25-year-old southpaw is set to be reevaluated after four weeks, so his actual return to the Athletics likely won't be until around the early part of July. Dan Straily is filling his spot in the rotation for now, but the A's could turn to Sonny Gray if he continues to struggle.

D.L.
Fernando Rodriguez underwent successful Tommy John surgery on his right elbow on Thursday.
Rodriguez will miss the entire 2013 season. The 28-year-old had a 5.37 and 78/34 K/BB ratio over 70 1/3 innings last season with the Astros and was acquired in February's Jed Lowrie deal.
