Athletics' Mike Fiers: Getting extra day of rest

Fiers will get an extra day of rest before making his next scheduled start Monday in Seattle, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Fiers was originally scheduled to take the mound Sunday against the Indians, but the Athletics want to give the veteran right-hander some extra time off before his next start after he fired 131 pitches -- recording his second career no-hitter in the process -- his last time out. With Fiers pushed back to Monday, Daniel Mengden appears to be the likeliest candidate to make a spot start this weekend.
