Olson agreed to a one-year, $5 million contract with the Athletics on Wednesday, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.

EDGE Analysis

He was in no danger of being non-tendered. Olson is coming off a down year (.195/.310/.424), but he still hit 14 home runs in 60 games while logging a career-best 13.9 percent walk rate. One of the problems was that his strikeout rate spiked from 25.2 percent in 2019 to 31.4 percent last season. He is a good bet to rebound to some extent in his age-27 season.

Olson went 1-for-4 with a solo homer and walk in Wednesday's win over the Astros in Game 3 of the ALDS.

EDGE Analysis

Olson hit his homer in the fourth inning off Jose Urquidy. The 26-year-old crushed his second homer of the series as he helped in an effort to keep the season alive in Wednesday's comeback win. The left-handed hitter slashed .195/.310/.424 and smacked 14 homers while recording 42 RBI during the regular season.

Olson is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

Olson has started all 54 games at first base this season but will take a seat Wednesday while he is 4-for-31 with 18 strikeouts in his past nine games. Mark Canha shifts to first base while Khris Davis serves as the designated hitter.

Olson went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer in Friday's 6-0 win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Olson broke the game open in the third inning with his 14th home run of the season. While Olson's strikeout rate is up -- just under 30 percent -- his .191 batting average is worse than he deserves. Olson has just a .200 BABIP and Statcast gives him an xBA of .239 through 214 plate appearances.

Olson went 2-for-5 with a grand slam and five total RBI's during the A's Friday night win over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Olson led the way for the A's, plating half of the team's runs in a 10-6 victory over the Rangers. Olson has improved his season of late, slashing .269/.345/.615 over his last seven games. He continues to be a vital piece for the division-leading A's.

Olson went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer and a walk in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Jose Urquidy kept Oakland's offense quiet through five innings, but Olson was able to take the right-hander deep for a two-run shot to give the A's a 2-1 lead in the sixth. It marked the first baseman's 12th long ball on the campaign. Despite hitting just .194 so far, Olson has been able to reach base at a .320 clip while providing plenty of power in the middle of the Athletics' lineup.

Olson went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and three strikeouts in a 5-4 loss to the Astros in Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader.

EDGE Analysis

Olson went deep in the third inning, giving the Athletics a 4-0 lead at the time. The first baseman is up to 11 long balls this year, to go with 29 RBI and 22 runs scored in 40 games despite his .188/.312/.444 slash line.

Olson went 2-for-4 with a pair of RBI singles in a loss to the Padres on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

A day after plating a pair of runs with the aid of a triple, Olson replicated the RBI total Sunday while accounting for all but one of the Athletics' runs on the afternoon. The slugger still sports an unsightly .195 average on the campaign, but perhaps his 5-for-8 tally over the last two games will ignite an offensive surge down the stretch for the 26-year-old.

Olson went 3-for-4 with a triple, two RBI and one strikeout in Saturday's win against the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

Olson had been struggling prior to the Athletics' recent hiatus as he had gone 0-for-6 with five strikeouts heading into the layoff. However, he's been dominant in the two games since Oakland returned to play as he drew three walks Friday prior to tallying three hits Saturday.

Olson went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk in Tuesday's 10-3 win over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Olson gave the Athletics a lead they never relinquished with his blast in the fourth inning. The first baseman is up to 10 homers, 22 RBI and 20 runs scored despite batting just .175 through 31 games. Fantasy managers that can weather his low average will want to take advantage of his powerful bat -- he'd be on pace for a 50-homer campaign in a full season.
