Athletics

Brooks Kriske

RP

Kriske pitched 1.2 shutout innings during his appearance Tuesday, but his shoulder forced him out of the game midway through the eighth. It's unknown whether he'll spend time on the injured list, but he'll likely be unavailable out of the bullpen for at least a game or two to allow the soreness to subside.

Max Muncy

3B

Muncy landed on the injured list April 28 with a fractured fifth metacarpal in his left hand, an injury that originally stemmed from a hit-by-pitch April 13 against the Rangers. The early expectation was that his stay on the injured list would extend beyond the 10-day minimum, and that has proven to be the case. Additionally, a lack of any progression toward baseball activities suggests the young infielder is not especially close to returning to game action. Zack Gelof has recently seized regular opportunities at the hot corner in Muncy's absence.

Denzel Clarke

CF

Clarke has been shelved on the injured list since April 22 with a deep bone bruise in his right foot and has slowly been progressing in rehab. These latest developments are a step in the right direction toward a return, though there remains no timetable for the 26-year-old to resume game action. He'll also likely require a rehab assignment before being activated to the 26-man roster.

Jacob Wilson

SS

Wilson went 1-for-2 with a base hit before leaving the game midway through the fifth inning, when he hurt his shoulder while diving at a Gunnar Henderson grounder that fell in for an infield single. The Athletics are set to send Wilson in for an MRI on Monday to determine the severity of his shoulder sprain, clouding the shortstop's status ahead of the team's six-game week. Darell Hernaiz replaced Wilson at shortstop during Sunday's game and could be in line for an everyday role in the middle infield if Wilson requires a stint on the injured list.

Gunnar Hoglund

SP

Hoglund has been out all season with knee and back injuries, so the injection for his hip could be related to his back issue. He had begun a throwing progression in late April, but it seems a setback led to the cortisone injection. There is no announced timetable for Hoglund's return.
