Player Notes
September 4, 2008
Ryan Sweeney had three hits and three RBI for the Athletics on Thursday night as he also scored two runs.

Our View:If not for multiple injuries this year, many would likely be talking about this guy. Sweeney has yet to develop the 20-HR power people have long predicted, but he is hitting .287 with seven stolen bases in just 312 AB. A big finish would likely solidify a starting role for him next year.

Ryan Sweeney was activated from the DL on Thursday, according to the Associated Press.

Our View:Sweeney has been out due to a sprained right thumb, and to make room for him on the roster the A's chose to demote struggling outfielder Carlos Gonzalez to Triple-A Sacramento.
August 28, 2008
Ryan Sweeney went 0-for-3 with two walks in a rookie-ball game in Arizona on Wednesday, which was his first game since going on the DL on August 13, according to the SF Chronicle. He is recovering from a sprained right thumb.

Our View:There is a chance he could rejoin the club Tuesday in Kansas City. He hit for a solid average (.287) this season, but offers little else as a fantasy outfielder.
August 25, 2008
Ryan Sweeney, who is on the DL with a sprained right thumb, will take batting practice for the first time today in Arizona, according to the SF Chronicle.

Our View:He is making progress, but the Athletics are yet to set a timetable for his return.
August 23, 2008
Ryan Sweeney, who is recovering from a sprained right thumb, has begun to swing the bat again (hitting off a tee), according to the SF Chronicle.

Our View:He is making progress, but there remains no set timetable for his return to Oakland.
