Kansas City, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Oakland Athletics reinstated designated
hitter Mike Sweeney from the 60-day disabled list Wednesday and transferred DH
Frank Thomas to the 60-day DL with a right quadriceps injury, effectively
ending his season.
Thomas was a late scratch prior to Sunday's 3-2 win over Minnesota after
feeling discomfort while taking batting practice. The 40-year-old slugger
hit .263 with five home runs and 19 runs batted in over 55 games for the A's
this season after being released by Toronto in April. Thomas was placed on the
DL in late July and missed significant time from May 28 to June 30 with
tendinitis in the same quadriceps.
Sweeney was placed on the 15-day DL retroactive to May 29 with left knee
inflammation. He had surgery on both knees June 11 and was subsequently
transferred to the 60-day DL on July 8. He was batting .292 with a pair of
home runs and 12 RBI in 40 games with Oakland prior to the injury.
