When Sonny Gray came off the disabled list Sunday, it was the continuation of an encouraging trend for the A’s.
May 25 saw second baseman Jed Lowrie come off the disabled list. Two days later, backup catcher Josh Phegley came off the DL. A couple of weeks earlier, third baseman Danny Valencia was activated.
No one can tell what the future will bring in terms of baseball injuries, but the way things are setting up, June could be a month in which the A’s get much of their karma back. And with that could be a chance to be competitive in the American League West.
