Aaron Civale - Gives up three runs in no-decision Civale didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against the Mariners, allowing three runs on six hits and a walk across 5.1 innings. He struck out five.

Impact After allowing just three runs across his first three starts (15.2 innings) this season, Civale's now given up eight runs over 10 innings in his last two outings. His ERA now sits at 3.86 with a 1.32 WHIP and 21:7 K:BB. The 30-year-old Civale will look to recapture his early-season success in his next start, tentatively scheduled to come at home against the Royals.

Zack Gelof - Not in Wednesday's lineup Gelof is not in the lineup for Wednesday's tilt in Seattle.

Impact Gelof started each of the previous three games, including the last two in center field while Denzel Clarke (foot) was unavailable. Clarke was placed on the 10-day injured list earlier Wednesday, but Gelof will begin the series finale on the bench while Lawrence Butler shifts over to center field.

Colby Thomas - Recalled from Triple-A The Athletics recalled Thomas from Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday.

Impact Thomas has slashed .309/.397/.574 with five home runs over his first 17 contests with Las Vegas this season. The 25-year-old could see some reps in the outfield and/or at designated hitter while Denzel Clarke (foot) and Brent Rooker (oblique) are shelved.

Denzel Clarke - Sent to IL with bruised foot The Athletics placed Clarke on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a bone bruise in his right foot.

Impact Clarke did not start either of the previous two games, though he did appear on defense in Tuesday's win over the Mariners. He will be eligible for activation at the beginning of May, though it's unclear at this point whether he will be ready to go at that time. Zack Gelof started the last two contests in center field and appears poised for regular run at the position while Clarke is out.

Jeff McNeil - Blasts first homer Tuesday McNeil went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Mariners.

Impact McNeil connected on his first homer of 2026, sending a Luis Castillo changeup over the right-field fence for a solo shot in the fourth inning. The second baseman isn't known for his power and hasn't provided much in that department, but he has been solid to start his first season with the Athletics, slashing .278/.361/.389 with a homer, five doubles, five RBI and seven runs across 23 contests.

Shea Langeliers - Homers in second straight game Langeliers went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in a 5-2 win against Seattle on Tuesday.

Impact Langeliers gave the A's a 4-2 lead with a 417-foot solo shot to center field in the seventh inning. It was his second home run in as many days and his eighth this season, tops among MLB catchers and tied for fourth-most overall in the league. Langeliers is slashing .312/.379/.613 and has added 14 RBI along with 17 runs as he makes an early bid for his first All-Star berth.

Jack Perkins - Picks up two-inning save Perkins earned a save against the Mariners on Tuesday, retiring all six batters he faced -- including two by strikeout -- over two innings.

Impact Perkins entered in the eighth inning with the Athletics up 4-2. He retired all three batters he faced in that frame, then returned for the ninth and struck out two of the three hitters who came to the plate against him to finish off the save. Joel Kuhnel has been the primary A's closer this season with four saves, and he may have been unavailable Tuesday after pitching two of the previous three days. With that said, the team's closer situation is far from set in stone, and Perkins -- who has a closer-like 12:3 K:BB over 8.1 innings on the campaign -- could work his way into more save chances, especially if Kuhnel struggles at any point.

Jacob Lopez - Improves control in victory Monday Lopez (2-1) earned the win over Seattle on Monday, allowing two runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out one batter over 5.1 innings.

Impact Lopez averaged over four walks across his first four starts of the campaign, so it was a significant improvement for him to issue just two free passes while throwing 52 of 86 pitches for strikes Monday. The left-hander recorded only one strikeout, but he mostly kept the Mariners in check, with the only extra-base hit against him being a solo homer by Cal Raleigh in the fifth inning. Lopez still has a poor 5.70 ERA and 1.90 WHIP on the campaign, and he's recorded more walks (19) than punchouts (17). Still, he's managed a 2-1 record and will look to improve upon that in his next outing, which is slated to be a home matchup against Kansas City.

Denzel Clarke - Resting Tuesday Clarke isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mariners.

Impact Clarke has gone just 1-for-7 with a walk and four strikeouts over his last five games, and he'll stay put in the dugout to begin Tuesday's contest. His absence will allow Zack Gelof to start in center field and bat ninth.

Cortes leads Athletics against the Mariners after 4-hit performance

The Athletics take on the Seattle Mariners after Carlos Cortes had four hits against the Mariners on Monday

1 DAY AGO • Associated Press

Carlos Cortes - Goes deep in four-hit effort Cortes went 4-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-4 win against Seattle.

Impact Cortes opened the scoring for the Athletics with a 379-foot solo shot in the fourth inning. He added three singles to finish with his first career four-hit performance. Cortes didn't play much early in the campaign but has started five of the A's past six games, either in left field or right field or at DH. He rarely hits against lefties (Cortes has just two plate appearances against southpaws this season and has gone 2-for-2) but has shown himself to be very capable of hitting big-league pitching, posting a .333/.417/.548 slash line with two home runs, seven RBI and a 6:2 BB:K through 48 total plate appearances.

Joel Kuhnel - Registers fourth save Monday Kuhnel picked up a save against the Mariners on Monday, allowing one run on two hits over one inning.

Impact Kuhnel was called upon in the ninth inning to protect a three-run lead. He gave up a single and a double to allow a run to score but was ultimately able to finish off the A's victory. The run was the first charged to Kuhnel this season, and the pair of hits were as many as he'd given up across his first six appearances. With four saves over his past five outings and no blown saves on the season, Kuhnel appears to have a solid grasp on the team's closer role despite fanning just three batters over seven total innings.

J.T. Ginn - Fans six in no-decision Ginn allowed three runs on six hits and one walk while striking out six batters over 5.1 innings in a no-decision against Seattle on Monday.

Impact Ginn fell behind quickly, giving up a pair of runs in the first inning and another in the second. He was able to settle down from there, however, keeping the Mariners out of the scoring column the rest of the way. Ginn's six punchouts were a season high, and he issued just one free pass after walking four batters in his previous outing. The right-hander began the season in the bullpen but has now worked as a starter in each of his past three appearances. In those three starts, he's allowed five runs over a combined 14.2 frames while posting a 13:6 K:BB.
