Davis (groin) was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Davis was expected to miss at least the next few days while recovering from a groin injury, and the club has now decided a trip to the injured list is warranted. Esteury Ruiz was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move.

Davis (groin) is unlikely to play for at least a few days, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Davis suffered a hip flexor/groin injury Sunday and was set to be examined by Athletics doctors Monday. Esteury Ruiz was spotted in the A's clubhouse Monday, but it's not clear whether he could be a potential roster replacement for Davis. More information should be available after Davis' exam.

Davis exited Sunday's win over the Nationals after five innings due to a right groin strain, MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Davis felt tightness in his groin during a fourth-inning at-bat, likely the result of a difficult over-the-shoulder catch he'd made in the top of the frame on a CJ Abrams flyball. The veteran infielder is slated for an MRI on Monday and considered day-to-day until that evaluation is completed. If Davis is forced to miss any additional time, the trio of Tyler Nevin, who served as an in-game replacement Sunday, Abraham Toro and Darell Hernaiz would all be candidates to draw starts at third base.

Davis is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Davis looks to be receiving a veteran's rest for the day game after a night game. Abraham Toro will fill in at third base for Davis, who had started in each of Oakland's last seven games while going 5-for-28 with three doubles, two walks and one run.

Davis went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in Friday's loss to Cleveland.

EDGE Analysis

Davis went deep twice against Guardians starter Logan Allen. After being released by the Giants during Cactus League play, Davis has seemingly found a more consistent role with the A's. The counting stats may be lacking due to Oakland's lineup but the 30-year-old infielder's playing time should help him maintain value in deeper leagues.

Davis is 3-for-5 with a double over his first two Cactus League games with the Athletics on Sunday and Monday.

EDGE Analysis

The new veteran addition has wasted no time making his mark with his pair of productive performances. Davis projects to hold down the primary role at third base once the regular season begins, and he'll have several more opportunities in spring play to continue tuning up for that assignment.

Davis signed a one-year, $2.5 million contract with the Athletics on Friday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Matt Chapman signing squeezed Davis out of San Francisco, but he will remain in the Bay Area by signing with Oakland. With a .760 OPS across the past three seasons, Davis instantly becomes one of the best bats in Oakland's lineup and is sure to see regular action at third base. However, considering the Athletics don't project to be competitive in 2024, it's possible Oakland trades Davis to a contender at the trade deadline in order to add to their pool of minor-league prospects.

Davis was released by the Giants on Monday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

Davis went unclaimed after the Giants placed him on waivers Saturday following the Matt Chapman signing and now is free to sign anywhere. Because the 30-year-old elected to take the Giants to arbitration this offseason, the club will have to pay him only a fraction of the $6.9 million he had been owed. Davis slashed .248/.325/.413 with 18 home runs across 544 plate appearances last season and should receive plenty of interest on the open market.

The Giants placed Davis on waivers Saturday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Davis entered spring camp as the Giants' primary third baseman, but he quickly found himself without a clear path to playing time after the team signed Matt Chapman to a one-year deal. Rather than having Davis begin most games on the bench, the Giants will now place him on waivers in an effort to alleviate $6.9 million from their payroll. Davis slashed .248/.325/.413 with 18 homers and 69 RBI across 544 plate appearances last season and is sure to receive interest from other clubs on the waiver wire.

Davis told reporters he's willing to do "whatever the team needs," following the Giants' signing of Matt Chapman on Friday, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Prior to the deal, Davis was lined up for the starting job at third base. Davis now is likely to either be a reserve or trade option, as the Giants also have Wilmer Flores available for an infield utility role and LaMonte Wade expected to handle a strong-side platoon role at first base. Davis batted. 248 with 18 home runs and a career-high 69 RBI over 144 contests last season and was awarded a $6.9 million contract in arbitration in February.
