A’s roster moves: 3 pitchers begin season on IL, Sam Selman DFA’d, 5 NRIs added

The Oakland A’s announced their 2022 Opening Day roster on Thursday, but to do so they had to make a handful of moves to put everything in order.

Injured list

The A’s placed three pitchers on the injured list to begin the season:

  • Starter James Kaprielian goes on the 10-day IL with an inflamed AC joint in his shoulder
  • Starter Brent Honeywell goes on the 60-day IL with a stress reaction in his elbow
  • Reliever Deolis Guerra goes on the 60-day IL with a sprained UCL in his elbow

Kaprielian is likely to be out for most of April, but he has resumed throwing and is feeling good so far.
