  • Athletics' Lawrence Butler: On bench against lefty

    Butler is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels.

    Butler started the previous five games but will take a seat Tuesday after going 3-for-17 with eight strikeouts during that span. Daz Cameron will man right field against Angels southpaw Tyler Anderson.

  • Athletics' Lawrence Butler: Sitting versus lefty

    Butler is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

    Butler was called up from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday and went 1-for-3 with a double and a run in his first big-league game in over a month. He'll head to the bench Wednesday as lefty Cole Ragans starts for Kansas City, which opens up right field for Daz Cameron.

  • Athletics' Lawrence Butler: Doubles, scores in return to bigs

    Butler, promoted from Triple-A Las Vegas earlier in the day, went 1-for-3 with a double and a run in a win over the Royals on Tuesday.

    The speedy outfielder churned out his fifth double and seventh extra-base hit overall at the big-league level this season in the fourth inning and subsequently crossed the plate on Zack Gelof's three-run home run. Butler has a path to playing time now that Seth Brown has been jettisoned from the 40-man roster, but the former must cut down on the strikeouts that plagued him during his first Athletics stint this season and eventually helped lead to his demotion.

  • Athletics' Lawrence Butler: Officially promoted

    The Athletics recalled Butler from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday.

    Butler was sent to the minors in mid-May after slashing .179/.281/.274 through 121 major-league plate appearances. He has since improved while in Las Vegas, posting a .767 OPS over 27 games. Seth Brown was outrighted to Triple-A in a corresponding move, opening the door for Butler to receive regular playing time in Oakland's outfield.

  • Athletics' Lawrence Butler: Set to join major-league roster

    Butler is expected to be called up from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Butler looks to be set to return to the major-league roster after being sent down in mid-May. With J.D. Davis being designated for assignment Monday, Butler will likely slot in as his replacement with Oakland. Butler has produced a .255 average with four home runs, nine RBI, 10 runs scored and seven stolen bases over 110 at-bats in 27 contests with Las Vegas since being demoted.

  • Athletics' Lawrence Butler: Making more contact for Vegas

    Butler owns a .250/.348/.420 slash line with nine extra-base hits (five doubles, four home runs), nine RBI and seven stolen bases in the 24 games he's played with Triple-A Las Vegas since being optioned May 14.

    Butler also boasts a 13.0 percent walk rate and modest 20.9 percent strikeout rate in that span, the latter figure representing a welcome reduction from the 29.8 percent number he sported during his time with the big-league club earlier this season. Seth Brown remains mired in a season-long slump, so Butler showing signs of life with the Aviators could mean a potential return to the majors for the 23-year-old.
