Coco Crisp - OF - Athletics

Athletics activated OF Coco Crisp from the 15-day disabled list.

Crisp will bat leadoff and start in center field in his return Wednesday. The 33-year-old was hitting .283/.388/.556 with five homers, 12 RBI and eight stolen bases in 24 games prior to going down with a left hamstring strain at the end of April.

Coco Crisp (hamstring) had a great day of running Monday and could be activated from the disabled list on Wednesday.

Crisp has made strides with his hamstring in recent days and isn't expected to need a rehab assignment. He'll likely test things out again Tuesday before possibly being cleared for activation Wednesday.

Coco Crisp - OF - Athletics

Athletics manager Bob Melvin wouldn't rule out Coco Crisp (hamstring) being activated from the disabled list on Wednesday, the first day he's eligible.

It doesn't sound like Crisp will require a rehab stint, but it all depends on how he feels when he runs the bases, which he's expected to do Monday. The outfielder has been sidelined since late April with a strained left hamstring.

Coco Crisp (hamstring) is expected to test his injured hamstring when he begins running in the next few days.

Crisp finally reported improvement in his injured left hamstring on Saturday, and is now making tangible progress toward a return to the A's lineup. Before his injury, Crisp was an absolute force offensively, hitting .283/.388/.556 with five homers, 12 RBI and eight stolen bases in his first 24 games.

Coco Crisp reported improvement with his left hamstring on Saturday.

Athletics manager Bob Melvin said it was the first time the outfielder didn't feel any soreness in the hamstring while walking around. That's still a long ways away from being able to run and play in games, but it's at least a step in the right direction.

Coco Crisp - OF - Athletics

Athletics placed OF Coco Crisp on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to April 30, with a left hamstring strain.

Crisp suffered the injury during Monday's extra-inning win over the Angels. It didn't appear to be all that serious at first, but he'll now be sidelined until around mid-May. Yoenis Cespedes figures to play center field until Chris Young is ready to return to the lineup.

Coco Crisp left Monday's game in the 13th inning with a hamstring injury.

Crisp came up a little lame trying to beat out a grounder in extra innings. Since it didn't seem to be anything too severe, we'll call him day-to-day for now. Chris Young can fill in for him.

Coco Crisp - OF - Athletics

Coco Crisp went 2-for-4 with two runs scored as the A's defeated the Red Sox on Tuesday.

Crisp has now scored 20 runs on the year and we've still got a week left in April. The power shouldn't be expected to remain all season, but he's more than capable of continuing to set the table at the top of the A's lineup. One of the most proficient base stealers in the game, it's hard to find a player who's had a better first month than Crisp.

Coco Crisp - OF - Athletics

Coco Crisp is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Astros.

The A's have a day game on Wednesday and an off-day on Thursday, so manager Bob Melvin wants to give Crisp a breather after his recent groin issue. Chris Young will play center field Wednesday while John Jaso will serve as the DH.

Coco Crisp (groin) is back in Monday's lineup against the Astros.

Crisp hasn't played since Friday due to a strained left groin, but a couple of days of rest did him some good. The veteran outfielder is hitting .333 (16-for-48) with four homers, five doubles, seven RBI and four stolen bases through 11 games this season. Get him back in your lineups in fantasy leagues.

Coco Crisp (groin) is not in Saturday's lineup against the Tigers.

Yoenis Cespedes (hand) and Jed Lowrie are also not in the lineup. Oakland could be forced to call up Michael Taylor or Shane Peterson if Crisp requires an extended absence. Cespedes is considered day-to-day after leaving Friday's game.

Coco Crisp - OF - Athletics

Coco Crisp left Friday's game against the Tigers because of a strained left groin.

The A's will likely have to make a roster move Saturday with both Crisp and Yoenis Cespedes hurting, and there's a good chance Crisp will be the one to land on the disabled list. It's unfortunate, as he was off to a terrific start, but the A's were well prepared for this. They'll go to Chris Young in center and give more at-bats to Seth Smith at DH. Either Michael Taylor or Shane Peterson would be called up.

Coco Crisp - OF - Athletics

Coco Crisp went 2-for-5 and homered in a fourth straight game Tuesday against the Angels.

Crisp has averaged a bit less than an extra-base hit every third game of his career. This season, he has four homers and five doubles in eight games. Maybe he switched breakfast cereals.
