To no one’s great surprise, the A’s are using the disabled list for a 16th time in 10 weeks with left-hander Sean Manaea headed to the DL.
Manaea came out of Monday’s game against the Rangers feeling discomfort in his left forearm. He’d been having a little issue with the forearm for a while, but the problem became particularly acute Monday when he came out of the game after 4.1 innings.
The A’s were leading Texas 9-2 at the time and he would have been eligible for the win had he remained in the game for two more batters.
