Esteury Ruiz

The A’s optioned several names to Triple-A Las Vegas last night, including outfielder Esteury Ruiz, rotation hopeful J.T. Ginn, infielder Darell Hernaiz, and righties Elvis Alvarado and Grant Holman. Infielder Alejo Lopez and lefty Matt Krook, both former big leaguers in camp on non-roster deals, were also reassigned to minor league camp. All of those…

A big day of cuts for the A's, but it's that time of year. Ruiz is one of the fastest players in baseball, but hasn't hit enough to put that speed to use. Alvarado, Ginn and Holman will likely help the Athletics' pitching staff by the end of 2025.

The 22-year-old hurler made it look effortless in this one, carving up the Athletics' lineup from top to bottom. He struck out Brent Rooker, Zack Gelof and Denzel Clarke, got Esteury Ruiz on a ground ball to second base and the other five outs came on fly balls or pop outs. The Brewers' signing of Jose Quintana likely means that Misiorowski's likeliest path to the big leagues in 2025 could come as a weapon out of the bullpen. The more that he dominates in Cactus League play though, the more opportunities will be afforded to him.
