Not starting Tuesday Toro isn't in the Athletics' lineup versus the Giants on Tuesday.

Impact Toro has an OPS of .432 since his return from a hamstring injury. As he continues to try and return to form, he will take a breather Tuesday. Brett Harris has the start at third base and is batting eighth.

Idle Thursday Toro isn't in the Athletics' lineup for Thursday's game versus the Angels.

Impact The switch-hitting Toro boasts a .783 OPS in 73 plate appearances against left-handers this season, but he will take a seat Thursday with southpaw Kenny Rosenberg on the mound. While Toro rests, Brett Harris will field the hot corner and bat eighth.

Productive in big win Toro went 2-for-4 with an RBI single and a stolen base in a win over the Astros on Tuesday.

Impact The Athletics' lineup is suddenly a very unlikely juggernaut, and Oakland belted another five home runs Tuesday. While Toro's line stood in stark contrast since it only consisted of a pair of singles, it was still noteworthy considering those were his first hits at the big-league level since June 21 due to his month-long IL stint because of a hamstring injury. Toro's steal was his fourth of the season overall, and the fact he had the green light further corroborates his previously ailing hamstring is back to full health.

Sitting Monday Toro is not in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against the Astros.

Impact Toro, who was activated from the 10-day injured list Sunday, went 0-for-4 in his first game since June 21 due to a strained hamstring. The team will likely bring the third baseman back slowly as he works his way back up to game speed, and he'll begin Monday's contest in the dugout. Brett Harris will start at the hot corner and bat eighth against Houston right-hander Spencer Arrighetti.

Sitting Monday Toro is not in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against the Astros.

Impact Toro, who was activated from the 10-day injured list Sunday after recovering from a strained hamstring, went 0-for-4 in his first game since June 21. The team will likely bring the third baseman along slowly as he works his way back up to game speed. Brett Harris will start at the hot corner and bat eighth against Houston right-hander Spencer Arrighetti.

Hitless in return to action Toro (hamstring), activated from the IL earlier in the day, started at third base and went 0-for-4 in a loss to the Angels on Sunday.

Impact The returning infielder couldn't replicate the hot hitting he'd flashed during his four-game rehab assignment during his first taste of major-league action in exactly one month. However, of overriding importance is the fact Toro's physical issues seem firmly behind him, and he returns to an Athletics lineup that has suddenly heated up across the order and could therefore provide him with more run-scoring and RBI opportunities than he enjoyed earlier in the season.

Hitless in return to action Toro (hamstring) started at third base and went 0-for-4 in a loss to the Angels on Sunday.

Impact The infielder was activated from the IL earlier in the day, getting his first taste of major-league action in exactly one month. Toro's physical issues seem firmly behind him, and he returns to an Athletics lineup that has suddenly heated up and which could provide him with more run-scoring and RBI opportunities than he enjoyed earlier in the season.

Back from IL, starting Sunday Toro (hamstring) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list and is starting at third base Sunday against the Angels.

Impact Toro landed on the shelf June 21 with a strained hamstring but is ready to rejoin the Athletics after going 5-for-12 with a homer during a four-game rehab assignment. The 27-year-old has a .260/.303/.386 slash line through 73 contests this year and should see regular action at third base for Oakland now that he's healthy.

JULY 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Logs full game at Triple-A Toro (hamstring) started and played a full game at third base for Triple-A Las Vegas in its loss to Salt Lake on Saturday, going 2-for-4 with a run.

Impact Toro led off and kept up the hot hitting he'd flashed while putting in three rehab appearances with the ACL Athletics over the All-Star break. The ability of the 27-year-old to both play a full game and hit well versus a higher caliber of competition certainly bodes well for Toro's chances of activation from the IL following his second scheduled game with the Aviators on Sunday.

JULY 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Moves rehab to Triple-A Toro (hamstring) had his rehab assignment shifted to Triple-A Las Vegas and will play at least two games with the Aviators before being reevaluated, the Associated Press reports.

Impact Toro played three games for the ACL Athletics during the All-Star break and went 3-for-8 with a grand slam and two walks over that span. Now that the rest of the minor-league affiliates are back in action, the team wants to see how Toro does against a higher caliber of competition this weekend before evaluating him for possible activation from an IL stint that dates back to June 21.

Moves rehab to Triple-A Toro (hamstring) had his rehab assignment shifted to Triple-A Las Vegas and will play at least two games with the Aviators before being re-evaluated, the Associated Press reports.

JULY 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Serves as DH in rehab game Toro (hamstring) slotted in at designated hitter in the ACL Athletics' win over the ACL Guardians on Thursday, going 0-for-1 with two walks.

Impact Toro took a full game's worth of plate appearances in the seven-inning contest while suiting up on back-to-back days for the first time in his nascent rehab assignment. The 27-year-old hasn't had any setbacks thus far and has capitalized on facing rookie-level competition, and he's now likely to bump up to a higher affiliate as soon as Friday when minor-league post-All-Star-break play resumes.

JULY 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Slugs grand slam in rehab game Toro (hamstring) went 2-for-4 with a grand slam in the ACL Athletics' win over the ACL Angels on Wednesday.

Impact The recovering veteran also logged a full game -- seven innings -- at second base, certainly an encouraging development in his second rehab contest. The bases-loaded blast was a bonus against a much lower caliber of competition Toro normally faces, and it's likely he's bumped up to a higher affiliate as soon as post-All-Star-break play resumes Friday.

JULY 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Plays defense in rehab debut Toro (hamstring) started at third base and played seven innings in the ACL Athletics' loss to the ACL Rangers on Monday, going 1-for-3.

Impact It was a successful start to Toro's rehab assignment given he was able to play almost a full game on defense. The veteran is due to log several games in the minors before activation is considered, so a return immediately at the start of the second half of the season Friday may not be realistic.

JULY 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ready for rehab assignment The Athletics sent Toro (hamstring) to their Arizona Complex League affiliate Monday to begin a rehab assignment.

Impact Toro has been sidelined for nearly a month with a right hamstring strain but is finally ready to test things out in a game setting. He shouldn't require more than a few rehab games before returning to the Athletics' active roster. Prior to getting hurt, Toro was serving as Oakland's everyday third baseman and leadoff hitter.

JULY 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Working out in Arizona Toro (hamstring) has been working out at the Athletics' spring training complex in Arizona and could start a rehab assignment after the All-Star break, MLB.com reports.

Impact Toro's recovery seems to be picking up some momentum approximately three weeks in, and it appears he could be ready for a return to game action right at about the one-month mark of his placement on the IL, which transpired June 22. The versatile veteran had been a valuable contributor in all facets before the injury, so a return relatively early in the second half would be a welcome sight for both the team and fantasy managers.

JULY 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Increase in activity possible Toro (hamstring) could begin running the bases at some point before the end of the week, MLB.com reports.

Impact The infielder is still expected to be sidelined through the All-Star break, but this report represents the first bit of encouraging news regarding Toro's recovery. Toro is dealing with a Grade 1 hamstring strain, so he'll likely need to eventually prove himself in at least a couple of rehab games before being deemed ready for activation.

JULY 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sidelined through All-Star break Toro (hamstring) will be out at least through the All-Star break, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Impact Toro landed on the injured list Saturday due to a Grade 1 strain in his right hamstring, and the A's have already determined that his absence will extend into the second half of the season. Tyler Nevin figures to see the majority of reps at third base until Toro returns, though Aledmys Diaz and Armando Alvarez may also pick up a few starts.

JUNE 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Lands on IL with strained hamstring The Athletics placed Toro on the 10-day injured list Saturday due to a strained right hamstring.

Impact Toro returned to the lineup Friday after missing the three previous games due to a shoulder strain. He went 1-for-3 with a run and a walk in Friday's 6-5 win over the Twins, but he was replaced by Tyler Nevin in the top of the seventh inning due to the hamstring strain. Nevin and Aledmys Diaz should see increased playing time with Toro sidelined, as could Armando Alvarez, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move.

JUNE 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Battling sore shoulder Toro has been dealing with shoulder soreness ever since Sunday's doubleheader against the Twins, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Impact Toro's shoulder injury helps explain why he will be missing his second consecutive game Wednesday versus the Royals. The Athletics are still optimistic that the 27-year-old infielder will be able to avoid a trip to the injured list, but he will see a doctor Wednesday in order to determine the best way to approach his injury. Tyler Nevin figures to operate as Oakland's main third baseman while Toro recovers.
