Bolt entered Friday's loss to the Astros as a pinch hitter in the seventh inning and remained in the game as a defensive replacement, hitting a two-run double in his first plate appearance before grounding out in his second one.
EDGE Analysis
Bolt came through to slice a four-run Athletics deficit in half with his seventh-inning two-bagger, which brought home Jonah Bride and Vimael Machin. The timely double was particularly noteworthy for Bolt, considering it served as only his second extra-base hit in the last 12 games.

Bolt is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Bolt went 0-for-6 while starting in each of the last three contests, but he salvaged some value by chipping in two stolen bases. The 28-year-old looks like he could be a candidate to move into a short-side platoon role moving forward, as the Athletics called up lefty-hitting outfielder Cal Stevenson from Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday. Stevenson will start in center field with the Angels bringing righty Touki Toussaint to the hill, leaving no room in the starting nine for Bolt.

Bolt went 1-for-3 with an RBI single, a walk and a stolen base in a loss to the Giants on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Bolt enjoyed a solid afternoon out of the bottom of the order, one day after slugging his fourth homer after entering the game as a pinch hitter. The 28-year-old's production has been a bit of a mixed bag recently, as he owns both a 28.1 percent strikeout rate and serviceable .733 OPS over his last 11 games.

Bolt entered Saturday's loss to the Giants as a pinch hitter in the seventh inning and hit a two-run home run in his second of two plate appearances.
EDGE Analysis
Bolt's ninth-inning homer didn't have an impact on the game result, but it extended a decent stretch of hitting for the 28-year-old. Bolt now owns a .250 average and .464 slugging percentage over his last 10 games, a sample during which he's belted both of his round trippers on the season and driven in five runs overall while adding a stolen base and scoring on three occasions.

Bolt isn't starting Thursday against the Angels.

Bolt is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Ramon Laureano will slide over from right field to fill in as the Athletics' center fielder in place of Bolt, who looks to be getting some routine maintenance. Bolt started in each of the previous five contests, going 5-for-18 with a home run and a stolen base.

Bolt went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and a stolen base in a 7-5 win against Houston on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Bolt gave Oakland a 6-1 lead with his two-run shot to right field in the fourth inning, and he tacked on a single and stolen base in the seventh. It was the first time this season that the outfielder has produced both a long ball and a theft in the same game. Bolt tallied three hits over his last two games but is still batting a mediocre .231 on the campaign.
