Outrighted to Triple-A Adams (forearm) cleared waivers Thursday and was sent outright to Triple-A Las Vegas.

Impact Adams turned in a 3.92 ERA and 1.48 WHIP across 41.1 innings in 2024, but forearm tendinitis has kept him out of action since mid-August.

Still awaiting evaluation Adams, who recently suffered a setback with his forearm injury, is still waiting to be evaluated by team doctors, MLB.com reports.

Impact Adams saw a planned rehab assignment with Triple-A Las Vegas scuttled due to the setback, and he'd been sent back to Oakland for an evaluation. However, as of Monday, that testing had yet to occur, casting further doubt on the veteran reliever's chances of returning before the end of the regular season.

Impact Adams had also thrown a bullpen session Tuesday without any setbacks, so he seems to be making steady progress.

Bullpen sessions forthcoming Adams (forearm) is scheduled to throw bullpen sessions Tuesday and Friday, MLB.com reports.

Impact The right-hander has been on the shelf for just over two weeks, having hit the IL on Aug. 18. The Athletics will wait to see how Adams emerges from the two bullpen sessions before a decision is made on whether to send him on a rehab assignment for the tail end of the minor-league season. Adams has been a valuable sixth- and seventh-inning option for manager Mark Kotsay all season, making 56 appearances and recording a win and 22 holds along the way.

Heading to IL The Athletics are placing Adams on the injured list Saturday with right elbow tightness, Jason Burke of SI.com reports.

Impact Adams hasn't pitched since Monday when he threw a scoreless inning against the Mets en route to his first win of the season. It appears he picked up an injury during the outing and it's considered severe enough to warrant an IL stint. Grant Holman and Scott Alexander are candidates to see more high-leverage work while Adams is shelved.

Moves past neck issue Adams (neck) recorded one out and gave up one hit and one walk in a relief appearance during Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Rays.

Impact Adams was lifted early in his prior appearance Saturday against the Astros due to neck tightness, but the issue wasn't serious enough to warrant a stint on the injured list.
