Moreland is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Blue Jays, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran slugger launched his fourth homer of the season Tuesday with a two-run shot during the second inning, but he'll head to the bench Wednesday with lefty Robbie Ray on the mound for Toronto. Sean Murphy will serve as the designated hitter while Austin Allen works behind the plate for the A's.

Moreland went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Tuesday's victory over the Blue Jays.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran plated half of Oakland's runs in the win with a two-run shot to left field in the second inning. The long ball was his fourth this season and pushed Moreland's RBI total to 13. He is slashing .225/.305/.423 this season while primarily logging time at designated hitter.

Moreland will sit Monday against the Blue Jays.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland will hit the bench against lefty Steven Matz. He's not quite being strictly platooned, though he's sat against six of the 11 southpaws the Athletics have faced thus far. Mark Canha will serve as the designated hitter Monday.

Moreland went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in the 3-2 loss to the Orioles on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland took John Means deep in the seventh inning for his third home run of the season. Moreland has a hit in each of his last four games as he is starting to find some consistency. The 35-year-old's two home runs on April 20 is the only game where he has more than one run or RBI. He only has five extra-base hits in 69 plate appearances.

Moreland was added to the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland was initially slated to get a breather against a left-hander (Shane McClanahan), but he'll take over at first base and bat sixth after Matt Olson was scratched from the lineup for an unspecified reason. The veteran is off to a slow start this season, hitting .250/.328/.385, with both his homers having come in one game (April 20 against the Twins).

Moreland will hit the bench against lefty Shane McClanahan and the Rays on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

McClanahan is the eighth lefty the Athletics have faced this season. Moreland has started against just two of them. Jed Lowrie will serve as the designated hitter Thursday, with Tony Kemp starting at second base.

Moreland isn't in the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland will be out of the lineup for a second straight game with another left-hander (Rich Hill) on the mound. Ramon Laureano will serve as the designated hitter while Tony Kemp enters the lineup in left field.

Moreland is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

With a southpaw (John Means) on the hill for Baltimore, the lefty-hitting Moreland will bow out of the lineup as Athletics skipper Bob Melvin elects to play matchups. Jed Lowrie will replace Moreland at designated hitter, while Vimael Machin fills Lowrie's usual spot at second base.

Moreland went 2-for-3 with two home runs and three RBI in a 7-0 win during the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Twins

EDGE Analysis

He then went 1-for-1 with a walk in the nightcap. Moreland came into Tuesday hitting only .206 (7-for-34) with zero home runs, but the veteran slugger showed why the A's brought him in this offseason to fill their DH vacancy.

Moreland is not in the lineup Sunday against the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland will receive the day off Sunday with left-hander Matthew Boyd starting for the Tigers. Aramis Garcia will bat seventh as the designated hitter in the series finale.
