Athletics signed RHP Kevin Whelan to a minor league contract.

The 30-year-old right-hander had a terrific season at Triple-A Toledo in 2014, posting a 2.70 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 54/21 K/BB ratio over 43 1/3 innings. He adds nice organizational bullpen depth for the A's. Sat, Nov 1, 2014 03:32:00 PM

Batters
Pos	Role	Name
C	1	Bruce Maxwell
	2	Josh Phegley
1B	1	Yonder Alonso Sidelined Yonder Alonso (knee) said late Wednesday that he could be ready to play Thursday. Alonso was removed from Wednesday night's loss to the Astros after fouling a ball off his right knee in the eighth inning and he looked to be in a good amount of pain as he limped off the field, but the 30-year-old slugger escaped with a minor contusion. Consider him day-to-day. Jun 29
2B	1	Jed Lowrie
	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) won't be activated from the disabled list until next week. Chapman has been released from the hospital and will be back with the A's doing baseball activities on Friday. He's been battling an infection in his left knee. Jun 27
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) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session this weekend. Graveman has been playing catch and is now ready to begin the next step in his throwing program. He has not pitched since late May due to a right shoulder strain. So long as he does not suffer a setback, he could potentially return to action around the All-Star break. Jun 28
	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 (blister) will probably start Saturday's game against the Braves. Cotton exited stage left with a blister on his right thumb on Friday. While there was some hope that he might be able to start before the weekend, the A's look like they will be giving him a few extra days to rest up. Daniel Gossett is the probable starter for Thursday's game against the Astros, with Sonny Gray set to go against the Braves on Friday before Cotton's presumed return to the rotation on Saturday. Jun 28
	7	Chris Bassitt 60-Day DL Chris Bassitt (elbow) tossed a scoreless inning of relief with two strikeouts in Wednesday's minor league rehab game with High-A Stockton. Bassitt is on the mend from Tommy John surgery. He had initially gone out on a rehab assignment in late May, but that one stalled out due to his experiencing fatigue. Should this new rehab assignment go smoothly, the 28-year-old right-hander could potentially rejoin the A's in late July or early August. He figures to need his fair share of work in the minor league assignment before he is activated off the disabled list. Jun 28
	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) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session this weekend. Dull has been somewhat slow to recover since being placed on the disabled list with a right knee strain, but it is a good sign that he is now ready to start throwing off the mound in bullpen work. There is no clear timetable for his return at this juncture. Jun 28
	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
