Manaea was impressive during his stint in a Thursday intrasquad game, Joe Stiglich of CSN Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

The A's' projected No. 2 starter looked the most impressive of the top trio of arms, avoiding the kind of hard contact that both Sonny Gray and Kendall Graveman fell victim to. Manaea was so efficient in getting three outs, that the inning had to be extended in order for him to get in sufficient work. The 25-year-old southpaw is slated to make his Cactus League debut Monday against the Giants behind Gray.
