Takes seat Tuesday Moreland is Martin Gallegos of MLB.com for Tuesday's game against the Padres.

Impact Moreland has gone just 5-for-29, albeit with four extra-base hits, since the All-Star break. He's hitting .228/.287/.386 this season, which are certainly underwhelming numbers for a designated hitter. Jed Lowrie is DH'ing and batting cleanup Tuesday.

Out again in NL park Moreland is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres.

Impact Moreland will be squeezed out of the lineup for a second straight day with no designated hitter available in San Diego. Since southpaw Blake Snell is starting for the Padres, there's a good chance the lefty-hitting Moreland would have sat if the game was played in Oakland, too.

Sitting in NL park Moreland is out of the lineup Tuesday at San Diego, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Moreland was not in the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Mariners, and he's on the bench again Tuesday since the A's are without the designated hitter in an NL park. It's only a two-game series in San Diego, so the veteran slugger should be back in the lineup for the four-game set against the Angels, which begins Thursday.

On base thrice in win Moreland went 1-for-3 with a double, two walks and a run in a win over the Mariners on Thursday.

Impact Moreland extended his on-base streak to five games with Thursday's effort, one which finally pushed his season OBP over the .300 mark (.303). The veteran has been solid at the plate since shortly before an early July injured-list stint, hitting .308 (8-for-26) with four doubles, two home runs, four RBI, five walks and three runs across his last 11 games dating back to June 26.
