Triggs will start Saturday's game against the Angels, Jane Lee of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Henderson Alvarez (shoulder) expected to rejoin Oakland as soon as next week, the A's will elect to give Triggs his first start of the season. In fact, Triggs has logged just one previous start since turning pro back in 2012. Nevertheless, the 27-year-old will seemingly make a spot start Saturday while Oakland continues to deal with recurring injuries to their pitching staff. Triggs has accrued an 8.00 ERA and 1.61 WHIP over his previous 10 outings with Oakland this season.
