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.

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.

Olson went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in a win over the Diamondbacks on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Olson boosted the Athletics' lead to 3-0 with his 385-foot blast to right field in the fourth inning, a homer that plated Mark Canha. The slugger snapped a brief 0-for-10 skid that had encompassed his last three games with what was his ninth round tripper of the season, but his .170 average over 113 plate appearances has plenty of room for improvement.

Olson went 3-for-5 with three runs scored in Sunday's 15-3 win over San Francisco.

EDGE Analysis

Prior to Sunday, Olson's last seven hits were all home runs, so his three-single day was certainly uncharacteristic. Thanks to his eight home runs this season, the 26-year-old owns an .808 OPS despite an unsightly .185 average.

Olson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's victory over San Francisco.

Olson went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in a win over the Angels on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Olson opened the scoring on the afternoon for either club with one of his mammoth trademark homers, blasting a 454-foot shot to right in the first inning. The 26-year-old has had an interesting statistical month thus far, as five of his six hits in August have left the yard and he's also drawn 10 walks. However, Olson has also struck out on 12 occasions and is hitting just .136 (6-for-44) during that span, leaving him with an unorthodox .149/.313/.418 slash over his first 83 plate appearances of 2020.
