Seth Brown Stats

Oakland Athletics outfielder Seth Brown went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer in a loss to the Mariners on Monday. Brown got the scoring started early, taking Seattle hurler Chris Flexen deep in the top of the first to give the visitors an early lead. Brown was starting in place of Starling Marte (lat) and could see more playing time moving forward if Marte misses time. He's not much of a fantasy asset, however, as Brown is batting just .209 thanks to an unsightly 29.4% strikeout rate. Throw in a sub-.300 on-base percentage and Brown is best left on waivers for the final week of the season.

Oakland Athletics outfielder Seth Brown is playing right field and batting sixth in Tuesday's game against Jackson Kowar and the Kansas City Royals. This will be his first start since August 22. He was out for nearly three weeks after testing positive for COVID-19 on August 27. After a rehab assignment, he was reinstated on Saturday and he went on to pinch hit in both Saturday's game and Sunday's game, going 1-for-2 with a single. Brown has shown some power potential this year with 16 home runs and a .457 slugging percentage over 96 games, but his playing time isn't consistent enough to warrant fantasy consideration at this point.

Oakland Athletics outfielder Seth Brown (COVID-19) will play in his first rehab game Thursday with Low-A Stockton, according to Martin Gallegos. Brown was placed on the injured list on August 27 after testing positive for the COVID-19 virus. Brown's putting up mixed numbers at the plate this season, slashing .203/.270/.457 with 16 HRs over 94 games. He's probably a couple of rehab games away from returning to the A's but should continue seeing the bulk of playing time in right field against right-handed starters. He should only be relevant in very deep and AL-only leagues, providing nothing but power.
