Hogan Harris - Flirts with danger in save Harris allowed a run on three hits and a walk while striking out one over one inning to earn the save in Tuesday's 9-7 win over the Angels.

Impact This was Harris' first save since Sept. 4. The Athletics haven't created many save chances lately, leaving both Harris and Elvis Alvarado a bit dry on closing duties. Harris is now at a 3.42 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 86:41 K:BB through 68.1 innings this season, converting 16 of 23 save chances while adding 13 holds as a fixture in the high-leverage mix.

Brady Basso - Struggles again Tuesday Basso allowed five runs on six hits and two walks while striking out two over two-plus innings in a no-decision versus the Angels on Tuesday.

Impact For the second start in a row, Basso couldn't escape the third inning. He's given up nine runs over his last 4.2 frames, though the Athletics' late comeback spared him from another loss. Basso has a 5.36 ERA 1.60 WHIP and 30:9 K:BB through 42 innings over 25 games (seven starts) in the majors this season. Basso is tentatively lined up for one more start this year, which would be at home versus the Astros, a matchup fantasy managers will definitely want to avoid.
