Sean Manaea - Start pushed to Friday Manaea will start Friday's game against the Blue Jays, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Manaea was slated to start Thursday, but he'll switch spots in the rotation with Frankie Montas, who apparently had some visa concerns ahead of the trip to Canada. Manaea has a 9.90 ERA over his past five starts and will attempt to get back on track in Toronto.

Frankie Montas - Started bumped up to Thursday Montas will start Thursday's game against the Tigers, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Montas originally lined up to pitch Friday at Toronto, but he'll be moved up a day to avoid potential visa concerns for a trip to Canada. Sean Manaea, Thursday's originally scheduled starter, will simply be pushed back to start Friday.

Chad Pinder - Back on bench versus righty Pinder is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers.

Impact Pinder was included in the starting nine in each of the last three games, but the Athletics faced lefty starting pitchers in each of those contests. The righty-hitting Pinder will head to the bench Wednesday versus Tigers right-handed Wily Peralta, allowing the lefty-hitting Tony Kemp to pick up a start in left field. Kemp looks like he'll occupy the larger side of a platoon with Pinder in the corner outfield while Seth Brown (illness) is on the COVID-19 injured list.
