Records third hold Acevedo recorded his third hold in a win over the Orioles on Thursday, firing a perfect seventh inning.

Impact Acevedo got through his unblemished frame on 13 pitches, eight which he threw for strikes. The 27-year-old right-hander has now generated five scoreless appearances in his last six trips to the mound, and his early heavy workload is certainly a welcome sight for fantasy managers.

Bounces back from rough outing Acevedo fired a scoreless seventh inning in a win over the Orioles on Monday, allowing two hits while recording a strikeout.

Impact Acevedo got 11 of his 16 pitches into the strike zone and successfully navigated a pair of singles by Trey Mancini and Ramon Urias by inducing an inning-ending double-play flyout from Austin Hays. The towering right-hander had pitched to even more contact in his most recent outing, giving up three earned runs on five hits over two-thirds of an innings to the Blue Jays, but he'd been stellar over his first four appearances with eight strikeouts across 4.1 innings.

Impressive while getting first hold Acevedo was credited with his first hold of the season in Sunday's win over the Phillies, recording two strikeouts and issuing a walk over a scoreless seventh inning.

Impact Acevedo needed 20 pitches to get through his one frame thanks in part to Rhys Hoskins drawing a walk in a six-pitch plate appearance, but the right-hander was otherwise effective and recorded a swinging strikeout of Nick Castellanos during his stint on the mound. Acevedo has already rang up four strikeouts across two innings in his first two appearances, an encouraging start after submitting a 3.27 ERA and 1.18 WHIP in his first 10 big-league outings a season ago.

Mixed bag in Cactus League play Acevedo posted a 5.79 ERA and 2:3 K:BB across 4.2 innings over four Cactus League appearances (one start).

Impact The towering right-hander's one start qualified as such in name only, as Acevedo logged just 1.2 innings. He otherwise worked a frame apiece in his three other trips to the mound in preparation for what Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports could be a fluid role behind closer Lou Trivino to open the season. In his first taste of big-league action last season, Acevedo produced a solid 3.27 ERA and 1.18 WHIP across 11 innings over 10 appearances, and although he generated a middling 20.5 percent strikeout rate, he fashioned a spotless 100% LOB rate as well.

Impressive in first two appearances Acevedo, who fired two scoreless innings during which he allowed a walk and recorded two strikeouts in a loss to the Mariners on Monday, has furnished two scoreless appearances ove...

Impact The 27-year-old had toiled in the minors since 2014 before getting his first promotion earlier this season, and Acevedo has been particularly impressive in this, his second big-league stint overall. The right-hander fired a perfect frame against the Royals on the very day he was called up as well, and his previous starting experience in the minors should enable him to handler lower-leverage multi-inning assignments like Monday's if necessary over the final days of the regular season.

Contract selected Acevedo's contract was selected by Oakland on Tuesday.

Impact Acevedo made three appearances for Oakland earlier in the season, allowing three runs on five hits in three innings of work. He was designated for assignment by the team at the end of July but remained in the organization. He'll likely serve a low-leverage role during his time with the big-league club.

Impact Acevedo was designated for assignment Friday but will stay with the club on a minor-league deal. He's appeared in three big-league games this season for Oakland, allowing three runs on five hits while striking out three over three frames.

Designated for assignment Acevedo was designated for assignment by the Athletics on Friday.

Impact Acevedo was sent down in early July, and he's posted a 3.86 ERA and 13:2 K:BB in seven relief innings at Triple-A Las Vegas since then. The 27-year-old made his first three big-league appearances in late June and early July, and he could remain in the organization if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Optioned to Triple-A The Athletics optioned Acevedo to Triple-A Las Vegas on Saturday.

Impact The righty has yielded a home run in each of his last two appearances, and three runs total between those two innings of work. Acevedo may find himself with the big-league club again at some point this season, as they don't have an especially deep bullpen and his struggles were in an extremely small sample size.

Impact The 27-year-old's major-league debut went very well, as he needed a relatively efficient 14 pitches to get his three outs. Acevedo was enjoying an impressive season with the Aviators in the hitter-friendly environment of the Pacific Coast League, where he'd posted a 2.20 ERA and 0.81 WHIP across 16.1 innings. He'll likely remain in lower-leverage scenarios for the time being.

Contract officially selected Acevedo's contract was selected by the Athletics on Monday.

Impact The 27-year-old will be promoted to the big leagues for the first time in his career after left-hander Jesus Luzardo was optioned to Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move. Acevedo made 15 relief appearances with the Triple-A club to begin the year and posted a 2.20 ERA and 0.81 WHIP in 16.1 innings.
