ANAHEIM -- The A's aren't any closer to announcing their pitching plans for next week's Wild Card Game matchup and may not do so until early next week.
"We're not there yet," A's manager Bob Melvin said Friday. "We'll know more after these three days. There are a lot of different avenues we can go, and it has not been decided yet."
Right-hander Mike Fiers, who followed opener Lou Trivino in Friday's series opener with the host Angels, would be in line to pitch on regular rest if called upon for the start -- or to follow an opener, which is still on the table.
