A's manager being cautious with Coco Crisp

Athletics manager Bob Melvin made a switch to his lineup prior to Tuesday's game against the Astros, moving outfielder Coco Crisp from center field to DH. Melvin opted to make the move since Crisp is still recovering from a groin injury suffered last week, per the Contra Costa Times.

Melvin added he will give Crisp the day off Wednesday so he gets more time to rest before the team embarks on a six-game road trip, which starts Friday against the Rays.
