Brown went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Brown was one of five Athletics to go yard Tuesday. His blast came in the fourth inning off Jake Bloss, and he later added a double in the seventh inning. In nine games since being recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas, Brown has totaled seven hits, with three of those going for home runs and two being doubles. He's slashing .197/.261/.351 with eight homers, 20 RBI, 19 runs and a 17:74 BB:K in 226 plate appearances.

Brown went 3-for-5 with two home runs, three RBI and three runs Sunday against the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

Brown joined the Oakland home-run brigade, clubbing two of the eight long balls launched by the A's on Sunday. It was the third start for Brown since returning from a two-week stint in the minors. Brown was batting .189 and had collected just five homers prior to being sent down but caught fire following his demotion, batting .403 with seven homers and 24 RBI during the 16-games he spent down on the farm.

Brown will start at first base and bat sixth in Sunday's game against the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

Though he'll likely be excluded from the lineup when the Athletics face southpaws, the lefty-hitting Brown seems to have taken on a regular role as the team's primary first baseman following his promotion from Triple-A Las Vegas on Thursday. He's now started in three of the Athletics' ensuing four games following his promotion and has gone 2-for-8 with a double and an RBI. Brown's run of steady playing time will likely come to an end once Tyler Soderstrom (wrist) is ready to return from the injured list.

Brown, recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas earlier in the day, started in right field in Thursday's 7-0 loss to the Red Sox and went 1-for-3.

EDGE Analysis

Brown had been swinging a blistering bat in the PCL, but the slugging outfielder endured a nightmarish 63-game stint with Oakland prior to his June 16 demotion, generating a .189 batting average, .557 OPS and career-high 33.8 percent strikeout rate across 195 plate appearances. Brown will have a lot to prove now that he's back in the majors if he's going to stick around when the A's get healthier.

The Athletics selected Brown's contract from Triple-A Las Vegas on Thursday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Tyler Soderstrom (wrist) headed for the injured list, Brown will now rejoin the A's in order to add depth to the team's big-league outfield unit. Since being outrighted to Las Vegas in June, the 31-year-old has slashed an incredible .403/.416/.736 with seven homers and 24 RBI over 77 plate appearances. It's possible Oakland works him into their lineup over the next several days in order to take advantage of his hot bat.

Brown, who was outrighted to Triple-A Las Vegas on June 18, owns a .400 average and 1.234 OPS over the 44 plate appearances he's logged since joining the Aviators.

EDGE Analysis

Brown is right back in his element within the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League, where he once ran roughshod over pitchers to the tune of a 37-home-run, 104-RBI season back in 2019. He hasn't truly approximated that caliber of production in the big leagues despite belting at least 20 homers on two occasions with the Athletics, and he was having a career-worst season when he was demoted earlier in June. However, Brown has rediscovered his power stroke in Vegas for the time being, with his five homers and 14 RBI already nearly matching the numbers he'd produced with Oakland over 54 additional games.

The Athletics outrighted Brown to Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Brown has started nearly every game for the A's this season, but he will be jettisoned off the 40-man roster and sent back to Triple-A after putting up just a .557 OPS through 195 plate appearances. The 31-year-old outfielder will remain within the organization, but his bat will presumably need to come alive in the minors for him to have any chance at returning to Oakland later this year. Lawrence Butler was recalled from Las Vegas in a corresponding move.

Brown is not in the lineup for the first game of Sunday's doubleheader against the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Brown is in a bad way at the plate -- he's just 3-for-his-last-35 -- but regardless he should be back in there to face right-hander Chris Paddack in the second game of the twin bill. Daz Cameron will get the start in right field in the matinee.

Brown will sit Saturday versus Minnesota.

EDGE Analysis

Brown will get a day off after he went 2-for-13 with a double, an RBI and a run scored while starting the last four contests. Daz Cameron will draw the start in right field and bat seventh against the Twins.

Brown is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brown is mired in a 1-for-21 slump and will sit Sunday against Toronto righty Bowden Francis. Daz Cameron will receive the start in right field and bat fifth in the series finale.
