EDGE Analysis

With the series being played under National League rules, Moreland is likely to miss all three games at Coors Field unless the Athletics elect to rest first baseman Matt Olson.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland was back in the starting lineup for the first time since his activation from the injured list Thursday and was able to reach safely for the sixth straight start.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland had been sidelined since May 15 due to an inflamed left rib junction, but he recently resumed taking full batting practice and was able to field ground balls at first base. He'll return to the active roster after spending just over the minimum amount of time on the shelf, and he should reclaim his spot in the lineup going forward. Moreland hit .237 with four home runs and 15 RBI in 31 games prior to his absence. Luis Barrera was optioned to Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move.
