Fowler is out of the lineup Sunday against the Angels, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
With the Athletics facing a left-handed starting pitcher for the third straight game, Fowler will once again be limited to a bench role. Fowler's absence paves the way for Mark Canha to make another start in center field.

Fowler is not in the lineup Saturday against the left-handed John Lamb and the Angels, Jane Lee of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fowler has yet to start against a lefty this season, though he's gotten the nod against nearly every right-hander since getting promoted in early May. Mark Canha will start in center in his place.

Fowler went 2-for-5 with a run in a loss to the Astros on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Fowler also struck out twice, a tangible reminder the young outfielder remains a work in progress. However, he's clearly hit a stride in June as he further acclimates to big-league arms, with Tuesday's effort already serving as his fifth multi-hit tally of the month. Fowler is sporting a .361 average overall in his last 10 games, a surge that's included three home runs and has boosted his season average 82 points to .256.

Fowler went 3-for-4 with a run and a stolen base in a win over the Royals on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The young outfielder made noise out of the top of the order, generating the second three-hit effort of his career, both of which have come over the first three games of June. Fowler's 6-for-12 start to the new month has already boosted his season average 67 points to .241, and as he demonstrated by slugging a pair of home runs in Friday's series opener, he carries some pop in his bat that can serve as an effective complement to his above-average speed.

Fowler will bat leadoff and man center field Sunday against the Royals, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Due to his speed and contact skills, Fowler could be the long-term heir to the table-setting role in Oakland, but his assignment Sunday looks like a temporary one with Matt Joyce (back) unavailable. Joyce is optimistic that he'll be ready to return Wednesday against the Rangers, and with the Athletics scheduled to face a southpaw (Matt Moore) on Tuesday, it's likely that the lefty-hitting Fowler will head back to the lower third of the order the next time he's included in the starting nine.
