Athletics' Chris Hatcher: Scant workload in June
Chris Hatcher has fired four scoreless innings across three June appearances, allowing three hits and four walks while recording five strikeouts.The 33-year-old right-hander went a full 12 days (May 31-June 11) without seeing any action, and he subsequently went another six between appearances this month until being called upon in Wednesday's win over the Padres. Hatcher has actually proven reliable of late after a rough start to the season, as he's generated scoreless efforts in eight of his last nine appearances overall. He's in line for the occasional decision as a middle reliever, but his fantasy value remains limited to very deep formats.

Athletics' Chris Hatcher: Pivotal relief contributions Thursday

The 33-year-old right-hander has seemingly turned it around in May, following a rough April in which he generated an 11.37 ERA over eight trips to the mound. Hatcher has allowed just one earned run in the 10.1 innings spanning his seven outings this month, and he's demonstrated his versatility by working multiple frames in three of those appearances.

Athletics' Chris Hatcher: Surrenders winning run Saturday
Chris Hatcher (3-1) allowed an earned run on two hits and two walks over 1.2 innings in an extra-innings loss to the Yankees on Saturday. He also recorded a strikeout.Hatcher worked himself into trouble after retiring Didi Gregorius on an inning-opening flyball by issuing a walk to Giancarlo Stanton, who moved to second on a fielder's choice. A second free pass -- issued to Aaron Hicks -- set up a game-winning single by Neil Walker. It's the second straight rocky outing for the veteran reliever, who'd also allowed three unearned runs over three innings against the Astros his previous time on the mound.
