Photo by Alex Slitz/Getty Images The A’s dropped the second and final game of their quick series against the Astros on Wednesday afternoon, falling 5-3 and leaving Texas winless. Desperate for a win, the A’s were going up against a face they’ve seen a lot in recent years as Lance McCullers Jr. took the ball to start this game for the Astros.

D. Ross Cameron-Imagn Images Alright, last night didn’t go so well. But it’s a new day! And that means that the A’s have a new chance to win. And at 23-32 they need all the wins they can get. Right Luis Severino is set to take the ball for his 12th start of the season. He’s on a roller coaster in his first season with the Athletics but overall still has a 4.11 ERA and is still looking for that second win in an Athletics uniform. Maybe today will be the day.

Thomas Shea-Imagn Images Just a couple of days removed from snapping their horrible 11-game losing streak the A’s found themselves in the loss column again on Tuesday evening, getting punched in the mouth by the division-rival Houston Astros 11-1. The Athletics now falling even further behind in the race for the playoffs and the panic button needs to be hit hard and fast as they drop to 23-32.

Photo by Lachlan Cunningham/Getty Images After a nice off day to travel to Texas the club is all set to gear up again and take the field, ready to take on the Houston Astros for the first time this season. Houston has gotten off to their typically solid start as they’re second in the AL West, 5.5 games above our last-place A’s. Houston’s gotten to where they are thanks in part to tonight’s starter, who is an early contender for the Cy Young.

Photo by Norm Hall/Getty Images The Athletics announced a series of roster moves in the lead up to the Houston series beginning tonight, including the club’s first trade of the 2025 season that will bring former Athletic Sean Newcomb back to the organization from the Boston Red Sox in exchange for cash considerations: The Athletics placed first baseman Nick Kurtz on the 10-day injured list retroactive to May 25 with a strained left hip flexor and selected outfielder Drew Avans from Triple-A...

Photo by Thearon W. Henderson/Getty Images The A’s are back in the win column after seeing their 11-game losing streak come to an end yesterday in the series finale against the Phillies. They now sit dead last in the division with a 23-31 record and things aren’t feeling positive right now as the end of May rapidly approaches. The lineup hasn’t been hitting, the starters have been inconsistent at best, and the bullpen has been a source of major frustration for the past couple of weeks.

Photo by Scott Marshall/Getty Images Good morning everyone! We at Athletics Nation hope each and everyone of you had a safe and fun Memorial Day Weekend. The Athletics made a major shakeup on their roster a few days ago when they recalled several notable prospects and said goodbye for now to other players. One of those moves was to designate outfielder/first baseman Seth Brown for assignment to create both 26-man and 40-man roster room for the new additions.

Bob Kupbens-Imagn Images Time to snap the streak. Ths A’s get another chance at the Phillies tonight hoping to snap this rough spell for the club. We’ll see if they can do it but it’s going to be a tall task against the team with the best record in baseball. Jeffrey Springs is set for the start tonight after getting pushed back one day. The lefty has turned his season around as he has a 1.46 ERA in four May starts. Can he keep that up against a tough Phillies team?
