The Oakland Athletics place outfielder Chris Denorfia on the D.L.
The Oakland A’s have placed outfielder Chris Denorfia on the 15-day disabled list with tightness in his lower back. Denorfia has played in 25 games this season for the A’s and he is 13 for 50 (.260 avg, .639 OPS) with 8 runs scored, 6 RBIs and 2 stolen bases. Denrofia has been a little bit rusty so far this season as he has much more power than he has shown. He missed all of last season due to Tommy John surgery.
