Chris Bassitt will make his first start for the Oakland A's on Tuesday, in place of the traded injured ill Sonny Gray. Bassitt made five starts last season for the White Sox, so this will not be the first of his MLB career. He has also made nine starts in Triple-A this season, including his last seven appearances, so he is stretched out and ready to go. Here is a quick reminder of what the right-hander has done lately:
2014, White Sox, 5 starts: 3.77 ERA, 28u2154 innings, 19 Ks, 12 BB, 0 HR
2015, Triple-A, 9 starts: 3.
