Graveman (shoulder) will start Thursday against the Giants, Joe Stiglich of NBC Sports California
With Sonny Gray gone, the Athletics have an opening for Graveman in their upcoming interleague series against their Bay Area rivals. Graveman owns a 3.83 ERA and 1.28 WHIP through eight starts this year; both would be the best of his young MLB career. He was also flashing a career best 93.8 mph average fastball velocity before being hurt, and with Graveman coming off an extended absence, owners should keep an eye on the radar gun in his first start back.
