Stephen Piscotty Stats

Oakland Athletics outfielder Stephen Piscotty (calf) will be going on the injured list, according to manager Mark Kotsay. He was forced to exit Friday's game due to calf tightness. An MRI revealed a Grade 1 calf strain, so Piscotty is going to miss some time. The 31-year-old has struggled at the plate this season, so maybe a little time off will help him. He's hitting .225/.340/.325 with one home run, so he can probably be cut on most fantasy rosters who don't have an available IR spot.

The Oakland Athletics placed outfielder Stephen Piscotty on the COVID-19 list on Friday and also placed A.J. Puk, Kirby Snead and Austin Allen on the restricted list. Catcher Christian Bethancourt, infielder Drew Jackson, right-hander Ryan Castellani and left-hander Zach Logue have been called up. It's unclear whether Piscotty has tested positive for the virus. The 31-year-old is 4-for-14 with one RBI, one steal and one run scored in his first 17 plate appearances over the first five games of the season. Until he clears the league's protocols, Chad Pinder and Tony Kemp could see more playing time in the outfield, starting on Friday against the Toronto Blue Jays.

Oakland Athletics outfielder Stephen Piscotty (wrist) is scheduled to undergo wrist surgery on Friday morning. Piscotty was sidelined with a left wrist sprain earlier this season and never fully recovered from it, so he'll go back on the shelf for the rest of the 2021 season. The 30-year-old from Stanford went back on the injured list last Saturday and hasn't done much for the A's or fantasy managers, slashing a meager .220/.282/.353 with only five home runs, one stolen base and 16 RBI in 72 games this season. Piscotty should no longer be rostered in any fantasy format and won't be much of an option heading into next season, even in the deepest of leagues.
