The Oakland Athletics placed infielder Zack Gelof on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a strained left oblique.
What It Means
Gelof was scratched on Wednesday and missed his first start of the season due to the oblique issue. The Athletics recalled infielder Darell Hernaiz from Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding roster move. Hernaiz will start on third base and bat ninth in Thursday's series finale against left-hander Nestor Cortes and the New York Yankees.
Per numberFire's MLB Heat Map, the Athletics have the second-worst implied total (3.19) out of 20 active teams in the majors today.
