Jordan Diaz - Being called up from Triple-ADiaz will be recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas by the Athletics on Wednesday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

ImpactDiaz has hit .273/.319/.455 over 11 games in the Pacific Coast League to open the season, and the 22-year-old infielder held his own with a .265/.294/.327 slash in 15 games with the Athletics in 2023. Diaz should receive regular playing time while with Oakland, but he's more a long-term fantasy option than someone managers should consider adding to their roster immediately.

Adam Oller - Back in majorsOller was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday.

ImpactJust four days after being optioned to the minors, Oller will return to the major-league roster as Dany Jimenez lands on the 15-day IL. Oller allowed seven runs in 2.1 frames during his last appearance and has historically struggled in the majors, giving him virtually no fantasy value.

Dany Jiménez - Placed on IL with shoulder injuryJimenez was placed on the 15-day injured list with a strained right shoulder by the Athletics on Tuesday, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

ImpactJimenez blew his save chance Sunday against the Mets and didn't pitch during Monday's 10-1 loss to the Cubs. Adam Oller has been recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move. While Jimenez is out, Trevor May is likely to see the majority of the save chances that are presented.

Ramón Laureano - Dealing with hamstring tightnessAthletics manager Mark Kotsay announced that Laureano is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cubs with a tight right hamstring but could be available off the bench,Mat...

ImpactLaureano has missed back-to-back games as he recovers from the hamstring trouble. The Athletics are calling his absence precautionary with the hope that that sitting will prevent the injury from getting worse. He should be considered day-to-day.

Mason Miller - Confirmed to join rotationAthletics manager Mark Kotsay confirmed that Miller will start for the Athletics on Wednesday against the Cubs and will remain a member of the rotation, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com...

ImpactMiller will have his contract selected from Triple-A Las Vegas before Wednesday's game against Chicago. The right-hander has registered a 19:0 K:BB over 8.2 innings for the Aviators and Double-A Midland, and he shows a triple-digits fastball along with a swing-and-miss slider when at his best. There will be ups and downs in Miller's rookie campaign, but the 24-year-old's potential for missing bats makes him one of the few Athletics worth fantasy consideration.

Trey Mancini - Gets Tuesday offMancini isn't starting Tuesday against the Athletics.

ImpactMancini is currently 0-for-16 in his last four games, so the Cubs will sit him down Tuesday in search of more offensive production. Luis Torrens will fill in as Chicago's DH and bat ninth.
