Dealt to A's in Chapman trade The Athletics acquired Snead and fellow minor-league prospects Kevin Smith, Gunnar Hoglund and Zach Logue from the Blue Jays on Wednesday in exchange for third baseman Matt Chapman...

Impact Oakland has been in full-on tear-down mode since the lockout ended last week, with the team having now moved Chapman, first baseman Matt Olson and starting pitcher Chris Bassitt in trades over the past few days. Snead is just one of a number of incoming prospects into the Oakland system, and he projects as one of the more MLB-ready new arrivals. The 27-year-old lefty got the chance to make his big-league debut with the Blue Jays late last season and impressed over seven relief appearances, as he struck out seven and allowed two runs over 7.2 innings. He should have a decent chance at breaking camp with the Athletics as a middle-relief option.

Returns to minors Snead was optioned to Triple-A Buffalo on Monday.

Impact Snead has spent the past couple weeks in the majors and appeared in five games, giving up three runs (two earned) on five hits with four strikeouts and two walks over six innings.

Dealt first loss Snead (0-1) allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits and struck out one in two-thirds of an inning, taking the loss versus Detroit on Sunday.

Impact Snead was responsible for RBI doubles by Daz Cameron and Willi Castro in the 11th inning, and the Blue Jays couldn't muster a second comeback to get the southpaw off the hook. The 26-year-old Snead has been solid with a 2.35 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 7:2 K:BB across 7.2 innings in his first taste of major-league action. While he saw a high-leverage spot Sunday, he's more likely to serve in a bulk-relief role in most of his appearances.

Impact Snead earned the promotion by pitching well at Triple-A Buffalo this season with a 2.01 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and 43:12 K:BB over 31.1 innings. The left-hander is looking to make his MLB debut and should fill a low-leverage role out of the bullpen.
