Jeffrey Springs - Goes five innings in no-decision Springs allowed two runs on six hits and two walks while striking out one over five innings in a no-decision versus the Mariners on Friday.

Impact Springs wasn't as good as last week's start in Seattle, but he was only denied the win due to the Athletics' bullpen. The southpaw struggled in the second half and was shelved with right hip discomfort in August, but he has gotten back on track in September. For the season, he's at a 5.93 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 105:54 K:BB across 135 innings through 27 starts. Springs' next outing is projected to be on the road versus the Rays.

J.T. Ginn - Unlikely to return in 2026 Ginn (elbow) is behind schedule in his recovery program and could miss the rest of the 2026 season, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Impact Ginn landed on the 15-day injured list this past Saturday due to right elbow impingement. Given the slow progress in his recovery, coupled with the Athletics being eliminated from playoff contention, the 27-year-old right-hander is trending toward not toeing the rubber for the rest of the 2026 campaign. If that's the case, then Ginn would finish the 2026 regular season with a 9-8 record across 27 games (24 starts) with a 3.71 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 121:57 K:BB over 138.1 innings.

Hunter Bigge - Claimed off waivers by Athletics The Athletics claimed Bigge off waivers from the Rays on Friday.

Impact It's not a surprise that Bigge didn't make it far via the waivers process after he collected a 2.51 ERA and 36:10 K:BB over 32.1 innings in his first two major-league seasons. He's regressed in 2026 with a 6.98 ERA and 14:14 K:BB over 19.1 innings with the Rays and a 6.14 ERA and 37:20 K:BB over 29.1 frames with Triple-A Durham. However, Bigge is under team control for several more seasons and could turn into a high-leverage reliever.

Shea Langeliers - Kicks off rehab assignment Thursday Langeliers (knee) went 2-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in a rehab game with Triple-A Las Vegas on Thursday.

Impact Langeliers returned to game action for the first time since undergoing a meniscectomy on his right knee July 28, picking up a pair of hits. He slotted in at designated hitter and is expected to remain in that role for the remainder of the season, keeping Jonah Heim and Brian Serven as the tandem behind the plate for the Athletics even once Langeliers is activated. Before hitting the shelf, the 28-year-old slashed .263/.332/.497 with 23 homers, 51 RBI, 55 runs and two stolen bases in 93 games.
