Athletics take 3-game skid into matchup with Mariners

Oakland is looking to break its three-game losing streak with a win over Seattle

JUNE 1, 2021 • Associated Press

Likely headed for IL Athletics manager Bob Melvin said after Monday's 6-5 loss to the Mariners that Laureano (groin) will likely be placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com...

Impact Laureano's sore right groin kept him on the bench for a fourth straight game Monday, but the Athletics were initially hopeful he would be able to move past the issue in expedient fashion and avoid a trip to the IL. Unfortunately for the Athletics, Laureano still didn't feel right after taking batting practice Monday, so the team seems content to shut him down for the next week or so with the hope that the extended rest will resolve the issue. Laureano's impending move to the IL should open up more reps in the outfield for a combination of Seth Brown, Stephen Piscotty, Tony Kemp and Chad Pinder.

Remains on bench Laureano (groin) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mariners.

Impact For a fourth straight game, Laureano will be relegated to a bench role while he manages a tight right groin. The Athletics are still listing Laureano as day-to-day, so the club is seemingly hopeful that he'll avoid a trip to the injured list and return to the lineup at some point during the three-game series in Seattle. Mark Canha will shift over from left field to cover center field in Laureano's stead.
