Exits early Friday Gelof was removed from Friday's game against the Pirates with a left shoulder injury, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.
Impact Gelof appeared to be holding his wrist after making a diving play on a groundball in the fifth inning, but the issue has now been revealed to be in his shoulder. He was immediately replaced at second base following the incident and will presumably head in for imaging to determine the severity of his injury. Fantasy managers can consider him day-to-day until the team provides more details about the second baseman's status.

Sitting in third straight game Gelof is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.
Impact The right-handed-hitting Gelof finds himself on the bench for the third game in a row, this time sitting against a right-hander (Lucas Giolito) after his prior two absences from the lineup came versus lefty starters. The Athletics had been deploying Gelof as their everyday second baseman following his call-up from Triple-A Las Vegas on Aug. 25, but he's slashed a disappointing .230/.277/.377 with a 43.9 percent strikeout rate since that time. He appears to have moved into a reserve role while the Athletics have turned to Darell Hernaiz at second base and Brett Harris at third base.

Absent from lineup Gelof is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Boston.
Impact It's the second straight game that Gelof has been absent from the lineup after he had started 17 straight contests. Darell Hernaiz will cover second base for the Athletics.

Sitting Sunday Gelof is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.
Impact Darell Hernaiz will slide over from his usual post at third base to cover the keystone in place of Gelof, who had started in every game since being called up from Triple-A Las Vegas on Aug. 25. In the three weeks following his promotion, Gelof is hitting .230 with two home runs, one steal, eight runs and six RBI while striking out at a 43.9 percent clip over 17 games.

Nabs first steal of season Gelof went 2-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's 6-0 loss to the Red Sox.
Impact The steal was Gelof's first of the season. The second baseman has hit .300 (9-for-30) to begin September, but he's also racked up 12 strikeouts over eight games in that time. For the season, he's batting .195 with a .553 OPS, two home runs, seven RBI and 11 runs scored across 83 plate appearances.

Herrera hits go-ahead homer, Mikolas pitches 6 solid innings, Cardinals beat A's 2-1
Iván Herrera hit a go-ahead two-run home run, and Miles Mikolas pitched six solid innings to help the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Athletics 2-1SEPTEMBER 3 • Associated Press
Trio of hits in win Gelof went 3-for-5 with a double, a solo home run, an additional run scored and was caught stealing in Monday's win over the Cardinals.
Impact Gelof contributed to the Athletics' blowout win Monday with his second homer and second double of the season. His 2025 campaign has been derailed by wrist and rib injuries, keeping him in the minors more than the majors to this point. Since being recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on Aug. 25, the 25-year-old is 7-for-27 (.259), with all four of his extra-base hits and five of his six RBI on the year coming during the seven-game stretch.
