White went 4-for-5 with a run scored in Monday's 5-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

This was White's first multi-hit effort, coming in his third career game. The infield prospect is getting a chance to play steadily while Nick Kurtz (thumb) and Zack Gelof (knee) are out. White batted .303 with an .834 OPS over 55 games for Triple-A Las Vegas prior to his call-up coming out of the All-Star break. The Athletics' infield is a bit crowded when everyone's healthy, so it'll be up to White to force his way into the lineup on a consistent basis.

Taillon did not factor into the decision of Monday's extra-inning loss, allowing four runs on five hits and two walks over 4.1 innings against the Tigers. He struck out six.

Making his first start since June 7 after landing on the injured list with a left hamstring strain, Taillon was ambushed early, allowing all four runs in the first inning on back-to-back homers by Riley Greene and Dillon Dingler. It has been a challenging season for Taillon, as after posting an ERA below 4.00 and winning at least 10 games in each of the past two regular seasons, the veteran right-hander has stumbled to a 2-5 record with a 5.38 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 65:25 K:BB across 72 innings (14 starts) in 2026. His next outing is tentatively scheduled for Sunday against the Pirates.

Wilson went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 5-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Wilson has six multi-hit efforts during his eight-game hitting streak. He's also homered in two of his last three contests, supplying four RBI in that span. The shortstop is batting .292 on the year and has added a .738 OPS, six homers, 30 RBI, 29 runs scored, 10 doubles, one triple and two stolen bases over 60 games.

Harris allowed a hit and a walk while striking out three in a scoreless inning to earn the save in Monday's 5-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Harris hadn't converted a save since June 12, and he had blown his two most recent chances. Over his last eight outings, he's gotten back on track, giving up one run on five hits and four walks while adding 17 strikeouts. He has seven saves in 11 chances as well as 10 holds as he continues to fill a high-leverage role in the Athletics' late-inning committee. Harris has added a 3.30 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 60:28 K:BB through 43.2 innings, adding some tantalizing strikeout upside despite the obvious risks involved with his 5.8 BB/9 and a hitter-friendly home park.

Misiorowski allowed an unearned run over four innings in a no-decision against the Mets on Monday, allowing four hits and walking one batter while striking out six.

Misiorowski hadn't pitched since July 7 coming into Monday, as a bout of arm fatigue resulted in him missing his final scheduled start before the All-Star break. The flamethrowing righty put up great numbers in his return to the mound against New York, yielding just an unearned run and notching 16 whiffs, but he was pulled after 65 pitches. Manager Pat Murphy said prior to the contest that the team was planning to shorten some of Misiorowski's starts in the second half, per Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, and Murphy also said after the contest that the hurler was "a little bit out of it" and affected by the long layoff while also suggesting that Misiorowski didn't quite have his legs under him, according to Hunter Baumgardt of Fox Sports 920 Milwaukee. The good news is that Misiorowski's arm didn't seem to be the issue, but it sounds like the All-Star pitcher will be carefully monitored by Milwaukee moving forward.

Springs allowed two runs on six hits and a walk while striking out two over five-plus innings in a no-decision versus the Diamondbacks on Monday.

Springs last held an opponent to two runs or less in his May 17 start versus the Giants. He cruised for five frames but was tagged for a game-tying two-run home run by Ketel Marte in the sixth. Springs has a 5.96 ERA with a 1.42 WHIP and 86:38 K:BB through 102.2 innings over 20 starts this season. The veteran southpaw is lined up to make his next start in Minnesota.

Flaherty did not factor into the decision of Monday's extra-inning win, allowing three runs on four hits and two walks over four innings against the Cubs. He struck out four.

The right-hander was hurt by the long ball, surrendering back-to-back homers to Seiya Suzuki and Michael Busch in the third inning. Flaherty was pulled before facing the top of the Cubs' lineup for a third time, departing after throwing 82 pitches (47 strikes). The outing snapped a strong three-start stretch before the All-Star break in which the 30-year-old posted a 1.08 ERA, 0.78 WHIP and 20:6 K:BB across 16.2 innings. Flaherty will take a 3-8 record with a 4.59 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 102:42 K:BB through 86.1 innings (19 starts) into his next outing, tentatively scheduled for this weekend against the Royals.

Castro went 1-for-3 with a three-RBI double in Monday's 7-3 loss to Washington.

With the bases loaded and two outs in the third inning, Castro belted a bases-clearing double off the wall in right-center field that accounted for all of Colorado's scoring. The switch hitter has come out swinging since the All-Star break, going 5-for-15 (.333) with three extra-base hits (two homers) and six RBI across four games. Overall, the 29-year-old is hitting .264/.333/.399 with nine homers, 43 RBI, 42 runs and six stolen bases across 86 contests.

Adames went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run against the Royals in a loss Monday.

Adames' lone hit was a huge one, as he belted a two-run homer to right-center field with two outs in the ninth inning to tie the game. However, the Royals were able to recover and notch a walk-off win in the bottom of the frame. Adames has opened the second half in fine form, contributing three homers and seven RBI over four contests. He's up to 18 home runs through 96 contests on the campaign, giving him a reasonable shot to reach the 30-homer mark for a third straight season.

Walker went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Angels.

Walker's hitting streak is up to 11 games, a span in which he has gone 13-for-42 (.310) with four extra-base hits, nine RBI and three steals. The outfielder has also drawn a walk in four of his last five games. For the season, he's batting .292 with an .880 OPS, 22 home runs, 14 steals, 76 RBI, 64 runs scored and 21 doubles over 97 contests.
