Shea Langeliers - Sixth homer in defeat Langeliers went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's loss to Texas.
Impact Langeliers snapped a seven-game homer dry spell Tuesday, taking Rangers right-hander Dane Dunning deep in the seventh inning. The hard-hitting backstop may not be helping fantasy managers in category-based leagues with his .232 batting average through 26 outings, but he's now up to six long balls, 14 RBI, 13 runs scored and one stolen base over 99 at-bats this season as a solid source of power at the catcher position.

Jacob Lopez - Labors in loss Tuesday Lopez (0-1) took the loss Tuesday against the Rangers after allowing three runs on six hits and four walks in 2.2 innings. He struck out four.
Impact Although Lopez was able to escape a bases-loaded jam in the first inning during his first start of the season, he was already up to 37 pitches after one frame. He also allowed a leadoff baserunner in each of his three innings of work Tuesday. The left-hander has a 3.86 ERA over seven innings so far, but his 9:7 K:BB and 2.57 WHIP are major causes for concern. It remains to be seen if Lopez will get another chance to start for the Athletics in the absence of J.T. Ginn (elbow), but the former's next appearance tentatively lines up for this weekend in a soft matchup against Miami.

Jacob Lopez - Working as opener Tuesday Lopez will serve as the opening pitcher for Tuesday's game against the Rangers, Jessica Kleinschmidt of Baseball America reports.
Impact Lopez hasn't recorded more than five outs in an appearance this year, so he'll presumably be asked to work the first inning or so before giving way to a bulk reliever. The southpaw has yet to allow an earned run over 4.1 frames this season.

Mason Miller - Secures ninth save Miller issued a walk in a scoreless inning and earned a save against Texas on Monday. He struck out one batter.
Impact Miller put Marcus Semien on base with a four-pitch walk to begin the ninth inning but avoided any danger and closed out the 2-1 win. Miller has now converted all nine of his save chances this season. He's delivered two straight scoreless appearances after coughing up two runs against the White Sox on Friday. Miller owns a terrific 22:2 K:BB with a 1.64 ERA through 11 innings.

JP Sears - Fans seven in win Sears (3-2) allowed one run on five hits over 5.2 innings Monday, striking out seven and earning a win over Texas on Monday.
Impact Sears fired five shutout frames before he was knocked out of the game by Jonah Heim's RBI single in the sixth inning. Sears has not given up more than three runs in any outing this season and missed his fourth quality start by one out Monday. He matched his season best with seven punchouts despite generating only six whiffs. Sears dropped his ERA to 2.94 with a 30:6 K:BB through 33.2 frames. He's in line to take the mound in Miami this weekend.

JJ Bleday - Absent from lineup against lefty Bleday is not in the lineup for Monday's contest in Texas.

Nick Kurtz - Taking seat versus lefty Kurtz is not in the lineup for Monday's game in Texas.
Impact The left-handed-hitting Kurtz started each of the previous three contests when the opponent had a left-hander on the mound, but he'll begin Monday's tilt on the bench as southpaw Patrick Corbin draws the start for the Rangers. Tyler Soderstrom will shift back to first base Monday, and Miguel Andujar will draw the start in left field for the Athletics.
