JJ Bleday News
Oakland Athletics outfielder JJ Bleday (knee) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Las Vegas on Friday, according to Martin Gallegos of MLB.com, and manager Mark Kotsay told reporters he could return next week if there are no setbacks. The former fourth-overall draft pick suffered an ACL sprain and hasn't played in the Majors since mid-August. Bleday has 77 games under his belt this season, and he's slashed .203/.313/.373 with 10 homers, 34 runs, 27 RBI, and five steals. He doesn't have much relevance in any format, even when healthy, so fantasy managers can ignore the 25-year-old once he's back in action.
An MRI exam showed that Oakland Athletics outfielder JJ Bleday (knee) has an ACL sprain in his left knee. Manager Mark Kotsay said he doesn't want to rule out Bleday for the rest of the 2023 season, but a return this year is up in the air. The A's placed Bleday on the 10-day injured list before their game on Tuesday. The former fourth overall pick of the Miami Marlins back in 2019 has looked overmatched at the plate since making his MLB debut in 2022 with the Marlins. In 77 contests with the A's this year, he's hitting .203/.313/.373 with 10 home runs, 27 RBI, five stolen bases and 34 runs scored in 284 trips to the plate. Since the 25-year-old left-handed hitter isn't guaranteed to return in 2023, you'll probably want to look for a replacement off the waiver wire in deeper leagues.
The Oakland Athletics placed outfielder JJ Bleday (knee) and pitcher Angel Felipe (elbow) on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday and recalled pitcher Tayler Scott from Triple-A Las Vegas and reinstated catcher Carlos Perez (thumb) from the injured list in corresponding moves. Bleday is dealing with a left-knee sprain and will now miss at least the next 10 days. With the 25-year-old Bleday on the shelf, expect to see a bit more of Tony Kemp and Brent Rooker making starts in the outfield for the rebuilding A's. In just his second major-league season, and the first in Oakland, Bleday is hitting a disappointing .203/.313/.373 with 10 home runs, 11 doubles, 27 RBI, five stolen bases and 34 runs scored in 77 games (284 plate appearances).
