Athletics manager Bob Melvin announced Sunday he has shuffled the rotation after deciding to give starting pitcher Sonny Gray a few extra days to rest with off-days Monday and Thursday. The right-handed hurler has been pushed back to Saturday against the Marlins.
Scott Kazmir will now start Tuesday against the Mets and he will be followed by Brad Mills in the two-game series.
Jesse Chavez, who was scheduled to start Saturday, has been moved up to Friday against Miami. Tommy Milone, who started Sunday against the Red Sox, will then finish off the Marlins series next Sunday.
