Manaea (soreness) will throw long toss instead of a bullpen session Thursday after reporting a bit of soreness, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. This may hold back his return from the disabled list.

EDGE Analysis

His absence was initially expected to be brief, but the Athletics will want to be cautious with this development. Manaea's timetable will become clearer in the next few days, while Sonny Gray is now expected to take his turn May 7, when it was originally thought Manaea would be activated.
