Player Outlook
Ross Stripling's 2023 season was split evenly between the Giants' rotation and bullpen. He spent time on the injured list with a back strain but returned to post a 3.94 xFIP over his final 53.2 innings. Home runs have become a recurring issue -- the right-hander has allowed at least 2.0 HR/9 in three of the past four seasons. His low walk rate is a double-edged sword, as it's inevitable that big-league hitters will punish his below-average stuff in the strike zone. Never a big strikeout pitcher, Stripling managed just an 18.4 K% last season. The 34-year-old was traded to Oakland in February, and while it is not a great situation, he will at least have the opportunity to revitalize his career with regular starts. Stripling reported to spring training with a new pitch which he described as a modified version of a slider that drops down late.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Picks up win in return

    Rotowire
    Stripling (2-9) picked up the win over the Angels on Thursday, allowing five runs on six hits and two walks over 5.2 innings while striking out three. Stripling ran into trouble in the second inning after allowing four consecutive batters to reach base with one out. He would end up being tagged for five runs in the frame but recovered nicely, retiring 13 of the next 15 batters he faced as the Oakland offense roared back in an eventual 6-5 victory. The right-hander has surrendered at least four runs in each of his last three starts dating back to May 18, and Stripling had also lost each of his previous four starts prior to Thursday's win.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Activated ahead of start

    Rotowire
    The Athletics activated Stripling (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to start against the Angels on Thursday. Stripling will rejoin the rotation Thursday in Anaheim after missing two months with a flexor strain. He had a maximum pitch count of 56 in his three rehab outings, so the veteran right-hander will be limited from a workload standpoint versus the Halos.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Returning from IL to start Thursday

    Rotowire
    Athletics manager Mark Kotsay said Stripling (elbow) will be activated from the 15-day injured list to start Thursday's game in Anaheim, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports. Stripling has been sidelined since late May with a flexor strain but is ready to rejoin the big club after making three rehab starts. The veteran right-hander had a maximum pitch count of 56 across the three outings, so he'll probably be a bit limited from a workload perspective against the Angels.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Set for bullpen session

    Rotowire
    Stripling (elbow) will throw a bullpen session Monday or Tuesday, Janie McCauley of the Associated Press reports. The right-hander completed five innings in a rehab start for Triple-A Las Vegas on Friday, building up to 52 pitches. Stripling has already made three rehab starts but may need one more appearance to build up his pitch count before he returns from the 15-day injured list and slides back into the Oakland rotation.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Works five innings in rehab start

    Rotowire
    Stripling (elbow) gave up two earned runs on eight hits and no walks over five innings in his rehab start Friday with Triple-A Las Vegas. He didn't strike out a batter. Stripling worked efficiently in the third start of his rehab assignment, needing just 52 pitches (37 strikes) to record 15 outs. Unless Stripling padded his pitch count in a bullpen session after exiting Friday's game, the Athletics will likely want to see Stripling reach around 70 pitches in another rehab start before bringing him back from the 15-day injured list. Stripling has been on the shelf since May 25 with a right elbow flexor strain.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Ups volume in second rehab start

    Rotowire
    Stripling (elbow) made a rehab start Sunday with Triple-A Las Vegas, allowing three earned runs on five hits and one walk over three innings. He struck out one. Stripling was originally slated to remain with Single-A Stockton for his second rehab start after a rocky start to his rehab assignment Tuesday, but those plans were apparently altered in recent days. The right-hander worked up to 56 pitches in Sunday's start, locating 37 of his offerings for strikes. The three runs charged to Stripling came off a pair of singles and a sacrifice fly, so he did a serviceable job of limiting hard contact. Stripling could make at least one more rehab start coming out of the All-Star break in order to further build up his pitch count before returning from the 15-day injured list.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Staying in Single-A for next outing

    Rotowire
    Stripling (elbow) will remain with Single-A Stockton for his next rehab appearance, which will take place Sunday, MLB.com reports. Stripling had been slated to work up to approximately 35 pitches in his rehab debut Tuesday, but he was pulled short of that mark after surrendering two runs over two-thirds of an inning. The right-hander had originally been projected to bump up to Triple-A Las Vegas for his second rehab start, but it seems the organization would like to give Stripling one more opportunity to work out some kinks at a lower level before moving his assignment to the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League with the Aviators. Stripling did emerge from Tuesday's 24-pitch start feeling healthy, so he presumably remains on track to return shortly after the All-Star break.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Inconsistent in rehab debut

    Rotowire
    Stripling (elbow) started Single-A Stockton's game against Rancho Cucamonga on Tuesday, allowing two runs (one earned) on two hits and one walk over two-thirds of an inning. He struck out one. Stripling was slated to throw about 35 pitches, but he was pulled after 24 offerings. The right-hander allowed a solo home run and saw another runner cross the plate on a fielding error, making for an all-around eventful rehab debut. Stripling is still likely to make his next rehab start at Triple-A Las Vegas on Sunday, unless the outcome of Tuesday's appearance alters that plan in some form.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Rehab assignment imminent

    Rotowire
    Stripling (elbow) will throw a bullpen session Saturday and then head out to Single-A Stockton to start a rehab assignment Tuesday, MLB.com reports. Saturday's bullpen session is the final benchmark for Stripling to clear before a return to game action for the first time since May 24. Stripling is expected to start Stockton's game Tuesday and projected to throw up to 35 pitches. If the outing goes well, he'll be bumped up to Triple-A Las Vegas for his next rehab start or appearance Sunday, July 14.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Completes live BP session Wednesday

    Rotowire
    Stripling (elbow) pitched a live batting practice session before Wednesday's game against the Angels, the Associated Press reports. Stripling's session seemed to have gone off without any issues, and he's now thrown a pair of bullpen sessions and Wednesday's batting practice in the last eight days. Manager Mark Kotsay previously indicated Stripling would likely begin a rehab assignment if he didn't experience any setbacks while facing live hitters, so the veteran right-hander could be heading to Triple-A Las Vegas to begin that phase of his recovery in the coming days.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Set to face hitters Wednesday

    Rotowire
    Stripling (elbow) is scheduled to face hitters in a live batting practice session Wednesday, MLB.com reports. Stripling will move on to the next phase of his rehab program after he completed a two-inning simulated bullpen session Saturday without incident. The 34-year-old has been on the shelf since May 25 with a right elbow flexor strain and will likely need at least one or two rehab starts before he's cleared to return from the 15-day injured list, most likely after the All-Star break.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Throws bullpen Tuesday

    Rotowire
    Stripling (elbow) was able to complete a bullpen session before Tuesday's game against the Angels and is set to throw another Saturday, MLB.com reports. The veteran right-hander came away feeling healthy from Tuesday's activity, and he's expected to throw 30-35 pitches in his session Saturday. Assuming that bullpen also goes off without a hitch, Stripling could be deemed ready to face hitters at some point during the subsequent week.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Set for bullpen session

    Rotowire
    Stripling (elbow) will throw a bullpen session in Oakland next Tuesday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports. Stripling has already held catch sessions where he's thrown from 105 feet and the bullpen session will mark the next step in his recovery from a strained right elbow. The 34-year-old will likely toss at least one more bullpen session before embarking on some sort of rehab assignment prior to being activated from the 15-day injured list.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Throwing from 105 feet

    Rotowire
    Stripling (elbow), who recently started a throwing program, is already up to a distance of 105 feet in his catch sessions, the Associated Press reports. The veteran right-hander appears to be making some solid progress, but manager Mark Kotsay still doesn't have a timetable for Stripling to throw a bullpen session or get back on a mound. Therefore, Stripling's IL stint could conceivably last through the All-Star break, although there still appears to be a chance he'll return prior to that point even when factoring in a rehab assignment.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Set to begin throwing program

    Rotowire
    Stripling (elbow) is set to begin a throwing program Tuesday, MLB.com reports. Stripling has been shut down from throwing since May 29, so this is certainly noteworthy news. The veteran right-hander will gradually up his throwing distance until he's deemed healthy enough to progress to throwing off a mound. Given the deliberate pace of his recovery, Stripling may not be a candidate for activation before the end of June.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Shut down from throwing

    Rotowire
    Stripling (elbow) has been shut down from throwing for up to 10 days, MLB.com reports. Manager Mark Kotsay added that the veteran right-hander will be reevaluated after that point, but the news just adds to the misery of Stripling's first season in Oakland. Before going on the injured list Saturday, the 34-year-old had already tied a career worst with nine losses across his first 11 starts, and his 1.60 WHIP over that span also serves as a low-water mark over his first nine big-league seasons.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Skid continues Friday

    Rotowire
    Stripling (1-9) allowed six runs on eight hits and struck out three without walking a batter over 3.2 innings to take the loss Friday versus the Astros. Stripling was perfect the first time through the order, but the Astros responded with six runs in the fourth inning, capped off by a three-run Jake Meyers homer run. This was Stripling's fourth straight loss, and he's allowed 24 runs (17 earned) over 15.1 innings in that span. The veteran right-hander has a 5.82 ERA, 1.60 WHIP and 35:12 K:BB over 55.2 innings across 11 starts this season. Stripling's poor performance hasn't cost him a rotation spot yet, but Kyle Muller tossed four scoreless innings in relief Friday and has past experience as a starter if the Athletics opt to mix things up. Stripling is tentatively projected to make his next appearance on the road versus the Rays.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Takes third straight loss

    Rotowire
    Stripling (1-8) allowed four runs on nine hits and struck out two without walking a batter over five-plus innings, taking the loss Saturday versus the Royals. Stripling has lost three straight starts, though he kept the ball in the yard and didn't walk a batter for the first time in that span. The veteran right-hander gave up two runs in the first inning and then ran into trouble again in the fifth and sixth. Stripling has a 5.19 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 32:12 K:BB over 52 innings across 10 starts this season. The Athletics' rotation has been hammered with injuries, so he's at little risk of slipping out of a starting role any time soon. Stripling is projected to make his next start at home versus the Astros.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Takes seventh loss

    Rotowire
    Stripling (1-7) took the loss against Houston on Monday, allowing three runs (two earned) on four hits and two walks while striking out one batter over five innings. Stripling was efficient in the outing, needing just 52 pitches to get through five frames. However, he was pulled before the sixth inning despite the low pitch count and despite retiring the final five batters he faced, and a fourth-inning solo homer he served up to Alex Bregman ended up being the deciding factor in sending him to his MLB-high seventh loss. Stripling at least managed to improve from a horrific outing his previous trip to the mound, when he gave up 11 runs (five earned) over 1.2 innings against Texas.

  • Athletics' Ross Stripling: Falls to 0-4

    Rotowire
    Stripling (0-4) took the loss against St. Louis on Monday, allowing three runs on six hits and two walks while striking out four batters over 5.2 innings. Though Stripling picked up his fourth straight loss to begin the campaign -- tied with Luis Castillo for most in the league -- he at least managed to improve upon the six-run, 11-hit performance he posted his previous time on the mound. The right-hander gave up a season-low six hits Monday and came one out away from a quality start, but he garnered only one run of support from Oakland's offense. Stripling has given the A's decent length this season by averaging nearly six innings per start, but he's well off the fantasy radar in standard leagues given his poor overall numbers.
