The Athletics announced on Tuesday that they placed right-hander J.T. Ginn (quadriceps) on the 15-day injured list with a strained right quadriceps and recalled right-hander Anthony Maldonado from Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move. The A's just activated Ginn from the IL on Monday from a right-elbow inflammation before he allowed four runs in four innings in a loss to the Los Angeles Angels. The 26-year-old is now back on the IL a day later with a new ailment and will miss at least the next two weeks. The former second-round pick by the New York Mets in 2020 out of Mississippi State has posted a 5.60 ERA (6.38 FIP) and 1.53 WHIP with 22 strikeouts and six walks in 17 2/3 innings over his four starts for the A's this year and hasn't been very sharp. Ginn has no business being rostered in mixed fantasy leagues at this time.

The Athletics announced on Monday that they reinstated right-hander J.T. Ginn (elbow) from the 15-day injured list and optioned right-hander Anthony Maldonado to Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move. Ginn will make the start in Monday's series opener against the division-rival Los Angeles Angels at Sutter Health Park. The 25-year-old is returning from a stint on the IL due to inflammation in his right elbow. He only went 3 1/3 innings in his lone minor-league rehab start last Wednesday with Triple-A Las Vegas, so although the matchup against the Halos is a good one in his return to the starting rotation, Ginn will most likely be on a pitch-count limit on Monday. In three starts in 2025 before getting hurt, Ginn had allowed seven earned runs on 15 hits (four homers) while walking six and fanning 15 in 13 2/3 frames. Those looking for a streamer should probably stay away.

Athletics starting pitcher J.T. Ginn got the call for Saturday's game after posting two excellent performances in Triple-A to begin the season. He didn't have an easy task against the New York Mets, but Ginn did well in this one. Ginn tossed five shutout innings before giving up a solo home run to Brandon Nimmo in the sixth inning. He would finish his day allowing one run on four hits while striking out six batters in the win. The expectation is that Ginn will stick in the rotation to face the Milwaukee Brewers next week. He could be worth a look as a low-end streaming option for that game.
