Yoenis Cespedes (left hand strain) has been cleared for all baseball activities expect hitting.
Cespedes is eligible to return from the 15-day disabled list early next week and could be ready by then if the swift progress continues. The 26-year-old Cuban center fielder was batting .245/.319/.434 with five home runs, five doubles four stolen bases and 21 RBI through his first 119 plate appearances as a major leaguer.

Athletics placed OF Yoenis Cespedes on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to May 7, with a strained muscle in his left hand.
Cespedes took two rounds of batting practice on Saturday before complaining of renewed soreness in the hand that he injured last weekend. He should be back in the A's starting lineup soon after (or even immediately after) he's eligible for activation. The 26-year-old Cuban is batting .245/.319/.434 with five homers, four stolen bases and 21 RBI this season as a rookie.
May 12 - 7:07 PM
Yoenis Cespedes (hand) was a late scratch from the A's lineup on Saturday against the Tigers.
Cespedes still isn't over the strained muscle in the back of his left hand, and has now missed five consecutive games. Collin Cowgill will again man center field for the A's as they take on Detroit on Saturday night.

Yoenis Cespedes (hand) is back in the A's lineup Saturday night against the Tigers.
Cespedes has been dealing with a strained muscle in the back of his left hand and hadn't played this entire week. But he took batting practice Saturday and declared everything good to go. The 26-year-old Cuban outfielder is off to a nice start in his MLB career, hitting .245/.319/.434 with five homers and 21 RBI as a rookie.

Brandon Inge
Sidelined
Athletics manager Bob Melvin wouldn't rule out Brandon Inge (groin) returning Wednesday but thinks Thursday is a more realistic target.
Inge has missed the last three games with a lesser version of the groin soreness that forced him to the disabled list last month. Josh Donaldson will start in his place at the hot corner Tuesday.

Scott Sizemore
D.L.
Scott Sizemore underwent successful surgery on his left knee Wednesday morning.
Sizemore was expected to open the season as the A's starting third baseman, but he tore the ACL in his left knee early in camp and has been ruled out for the entire 2012 season. However, he's fully expected to be ready for spring training next year.

Coco Crisp
D.L.
Athletics manager Bob Melvin said Coco Crisp (ear) has been progressing daily.
Crisp was finally placed on the DL a week ago after dealing with an inner ear infection for a few weeks. He's eligible to return on May 18, and it sounds like he'll have a good shot of being ready at that time.

Manny Ramirez
Suspended
The A's have confirmed that Manny Ramirez is scheduled to join the team on May 30 in Minnesota.
May 30 marks the end of Manny Ramirez's 50-game PED suspension, and he'll apparently jump into the starting lineup right away. He'll head to Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday to begin playing in minor league games. It's doubtful that the 39-year-old part-time DH will carry much value in mixed fantasy formats, but he may be worth a stash in some AL-only leagues.

Dallas Braden
D.L.
Dallas Braden (shoulder) has played catch several times this week, but Athletics manager Bob Melvin said the left-hander is not yet on a throwing program.
It's not clear when he'll begin one, but it shouldn't be far off. Braden, who is coming back from major shoulder surgery, was shut down from throwing for more than a month after a setback at the end of spring training. He's without a timetable.

Brett Anderson
D.L.
Brett Anderson (elbow) hopes to make a start in extended spring training next week.
Anderson recently began throwing live batting practice and hopes to begin a minor league rehab assignment by the end of the month. Barring any setbacks with his surgically-repaired left elbow, he could rejoin the A's rotation as soon as late June or early July. Anderson could make for an interesting DL-stash in AL-only leagues.
