Player Notes
May 14, 2008
Rajai Davis , the A's second option in center field since Chris Denorfia went on the disabled list, is starting and batting leadoff tonight when Oakland visits Cleveland.

Our View:Davis' strength is his speed, but he can't contribute if he doesn't get on base (.190).
May 3, 2008
Rajai Davis, recently claimed off waivers from the Giants, is starting in center field against the Rangers on Saturday night and is slotted ninth in the order.

Our View:Davis gives the team a third option in center field along with Ryan Sweeney and Chris Denorfia. He offers stolen base potential to AL-only owners but little else. In 19 games between San Francisco and Oakland this year, the speedster has score four run, recorded two RBI, five stolen bases and is hitting .172.
April 25, 2008
Rajai Davis, who was claimed off waivers from the Giants on Wednesday, and registered two singles and a triple in his Athletics' debut a day later, is thrilled to be in Oakland after opening the season with San Francisco in a 1-for-18 drought, according to MLB.com. Davis said, "I'm just excited about the opportunity to be here. I like to think about this as a new start." Manager Bob Geren said Davis will start occasionally and see plenty of action as a pinch-runner and late-game defensive replacement.

Our View:Davis is off to a good start in Oakland, and is worth targeting in AL Only leagues, especially due to his speed (he has four stolen bases).
April 24, 2008
Rajai Davis had a great debut with the A's picking up three hits and scoring a run from the ninth spot in the order.

Our View:It remains to be seen just how much playing time Davis will pick up given the plethora of bats that the team has to fit into the outfield, but he figures to at least be a useful pickup in AL Only leagues because of his speed.
April 23, 2008
Rajai Davis was claimed off waivers by the A's on Wednesday, according to the AP. To make room on their roster, the A's demoted pitcher Kirk Saarloos by designating him for assignment.

Our View:It was a pipe dream for the Giants to expect him to make it through without being claimed. Davis joins a very crowded A's outfield and doesn't appear to have a great chance for playing time, especially if the team does sign Frank Thomas which will mean that Jack Cust will have to play in left field.
