Oakland Athletics outfielder Skye Bolt (knee) suffered a right knee contusion after being hit by a pitch in the seventh inning on Thursday against the New York Yankees, according to manager Mark Kotsay. Bolt said X-rays came back negative, but he was still walking gingerly after the game. Reliever Joel Payamps (calf) suffered a left calf contusion. Bolt was 0-for-2 with a run scored in the game, while Payamps had to be helped off the field after being hit by a comebacker. It was only his second appearance for the A's after being claimed off waivers from the Kansas City Royals last week. Payamps' injury appears more serious than Bolt's, but fantasy managers should consider them both day-to-day for now.

Oakland Athletics outfielder Skye Bolt (knee) went 1-for-3 with a strikeout while playing right field in Monday's 3-0 loss to the visiting Miami Marlins. Bolt was scratched from the lineup on Saturday with knee soreness, but he came in as a defensive replacement on Saturday and Sunday. The 28-year-old hasn't been much of a fantasy option for the last-place A's, as he's slashing only .208/.266/.347 with four home runs, 12 RBI, nine runs scored and five stolen bases in 109 plate appearances over 40 games played in 2022.

The Oakland Athletics placed outfielder Skye Bolt (oblique) on the 10-day injured list on Sunday due to a right oblique strain. Left-handed pitcher Adam Kolarek was called up from Triple-A to take his roster spot. The 28-year-old Bolt put together some impressive minor league numbers at Triple-A last year, slashing .387/.492/.650 with nine home runs and 41 runs scored over 51 games. However, he's struggled in his brief exposure to the majors. Over 39 career MLB games, he's hit just .090/.116/.164.
