  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Getting day off

    Schuemann is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Cubs.

    Schuemann manned third base for the Athletics in each of the previous five games, but he will begin Wednesday's contest on the bench. Nick Allen will handle the hot corner and bat ninth.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Two steals, two runs in win

    Schuemann went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, two stolen bases and two runs scored in Wednesday's 5-4 win over the Astros.

    Schuemann has posted just four multi-hit efforts since the start of August, batting a meager .162 (17-for-105) in that span. While the rookie hasn't played particularly well of late, Wednesday's performance was an exception -- he avoided striking out for the first time in eight games. Schuemann is now at a .224/.315/.315 slash line with 14 steals, seven home runs, 34 RBI, 52 runs scored and 12 doubles over 121 contests. The A's don't exactly have a ton of exciting alternatives, so Schuemann is likely to continue seeing steady playing time at third base down the stretch.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Not in Oakland lineup

    Schuemann is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game in Houston.

    Schuemann started both of the first two games of the series and reached base four times, but he'll get a breather for Thursday's matinee. Nick Allen will cover third base and bat ninth for the Athletics.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Not starting Saturday

    Schuemann isn't in Oakland's lineup for Saturday's game against the Tigers.

    Schuemann will take a seat Saturday after going 0-for-5 with three strikeouts in Friday's series opener. His absence will move Tristan Gray to third base while Seth Brown covers first, allowing Daz Cameron to pick up a start in left field.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Rings up 12th steal in win

    Schuemann went 0-for-3 with a hit-by-pitch, a stolen base and a run in a win over the Rangers on Friday.

    The rookie recorded his 12th steal of the campaign after getting plunked in the ninth inning, and he subsequently came around to score on Lawrence Butler's double. Schuemann drew another start at third base while Jacob Wilson filled in at shortstop Friday, and the first-year duo looks poised to remain in that arrangement on most days down the stretch.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Homer, three hits in win

    Schuemann went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run and a double in Tuesday's win over the Reds.

    Schuemann homered to give the Athletics a 2-1 lead in the seventh inning and fell a triple shy of the cycle in his first multi-hit game since Aug. 2. It was a much-needed boost for the 27-year-old, as he entered Tuesday in a 2-for-32 slump over his previous 10 games. On the season, he is hitting .233 with seven home runs, 30 RBI, 48 runs scored and 11 steals across 371 plate appearances.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Likely to fill everyday role at 3B

    Schuemann is expected to see most of his reps at third base moving forward after the Athletics optioned Darell Hernaiz to Triple-A Las Vegas following Sunday's 4-3 win over the Brewers, Jason Burke of SI.com reports.

    Schuemann has made each of his last 30 starts at shortstop, but he'll likely see fewer opportunities at that position moving forward with Jacob Wilson (hamstring) likely to return from the injured list ahead of Tuesday's series opener in Cincinnati. The Athletics are still expected to keep Schuemann in the lineup on at least a semi-regular basis by deploying him at the hot corner, where Hernaiz had been serving as the team's primary option prior to his demotion. Schuemann's last start at third base came back on July 19, which coincided with Wilson making his MLB debut as Oakland's starting shortstop before exiting that game early due to the hamstring strain.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Sitting down Tuesday

    Schuemann isn't in the Athletics' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays.

    Schuemann will get a chance to regroup Tuesday after going just 1-for-21 with seven walks over his last eight games. His absence will move Darell Hernaiz to shortstop and allow Abraham Toro to pick up a start at third base while batting seventh.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: On base three times Sunday

    Schuemann went 0-for-1 with three walks and a run in a win over the Blue Jays on Sunday.

    The rookie displayed impressive plate discipline out of the bottom of the order, pushing his season on-base percentage to .344 with his first multi-walk tally since July 25. Schuemann has now reached safely in six straight starts, a stretch where he boasts a .450 OBP across 20 plate appearances.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Long starting streak ends

    Schuemann is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

    For the first time since June 30, Schuemann will exit the starting nine and give way at shortstop to Darell Hernaiz, who was recently reinstated from the injured list. Schuemann took over as the Athletics' everyday shortstop shortly after Hernaiz was placed on the IL in mid-May, and though prospect Jacob Wilson was called up from Triple-A Las Vegas on July 19 and was expected to threaten Schuemann's standing atop the depth chart, Wilson strained his hamstring in his MLB debut and went on the IL two days later. While the Athletics have continued to deploy Schuemann near the bottom of the batting order, he's been able to maintain a regular role by getting on base at a .335 clip this season and providing a dash of speed (11 steals in 12 attempts).

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Drives in two Monday

    Schuemann went 1-for-4 with a two-run single in a win over the White Sox on Monday.

    The rookie snapped a 1-1 tie in the fourth with his single, which brought home JJ Bleday and Zack Gelof to give the Athletics a lead they wouldn't relinquish. Prior to Monday, Schuemann had gone 11 games without an RBI, a stretch during which he'd hit just .200 overall and a miserable .077 with runners on base. Despite those forgettable numbers, Schuemann may be in the early stages of a resurgence, now having hit safely in three of his past four games.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Another stolen base Sunday

    Schuemann went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Sunday's loss to the Angels.

    Schuemann went hitless for a second straight day but was able to swipe base No. 11 when he reached with a walk in the fourth. If he had enough plate appearances to qualify, Schuemann would lead the A's in walk rate at 11.7 percent, as he's shown an exceptionally patient eye at the plate as a rookie. The 27-year-old is slashing .256/.346/.364 with six homers, 26 RBI, 45 runs and a 33:76 BB:K in 292 plate appearances.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Reaches double-digit steals

    Schuemann went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and a run in a win over the Angels on Thursday.

    Several other teammates delivered bigger hits, but Schuemann was productive from the bottom of the order. The rookie now has authored five multi-hit efforts in the last 12 games, and he's reached safely in 11 of those contests on his way to a blistering .400 batting average and 1.003 OPS over his last 46 plate appearances.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Multi-hit effort in Monday's win

    Schuemann went 2-for-3 with an RBI single and a run in a win over the Astros on Monday.

    Schuemann closed out the scoring on the night in the fourth inning with his timely knock, which plated Zack Gelof. The rookie has emerged from the All-Star break with a sizzling bat, going 6-for-11 with two doubles, a home run, six RBI, three walks and seven runs over his first four games. However, he's been consistently delivering at the plate for the majority of July, a month in which he's mustered a .396 average, 1.133 OPS, five extra-base hits and 11 RBI across 60 plate appearances.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Excellent in blowout win

    Schuemann went 3-for-4 with a home run, a double, four total RBI and three runs scored in Friday's 13-3 win over the Angels.

    Schuemann got the start at third base rather than shortstop, but he was quickly moved back to his most common position after Jacob Wilson suffered a hamstring strain early in the game. It appeared Wilson's promotion from Triple-A Las Vegas would have a ripple effect on the Athletics' infield, but if the injury lands him on the IL, Schuemann would figure to once again have a clear path to an everyday role at shortstop. For the season, Schuemann is slashing .255/.345/.373 with six home runs, eight doubles, 24 RBI, 39 runs scored and nine stolen bases over 75 contests, though he's been sharper lately, hitting .390 (16-for-41) in July.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Strong finish to first half

    Schuemann went 2-for-4 with a walk and three runs in a win over the Phillies on Sunday. He was also caught stealing on his only attempt.

    The rookie's productive line looks deceptively tame next to those of some of his teammates, considering three Athletics players slugged multiple home runs and Zack Gelof belted a grand slam. However, Schuemann was a very effective table-setting presence out of the bottom of the order, crossing the plate on each of Lawrence Butler's trio of homers. The All-Star break arguably comes at an inopportune time for Schuemann, who heads into the pause in play hitting .357 (10-for-28) over his last eight games while mustering a trio of multi-hit efforts in that span.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Stays hot in Wednesday's win

    Schuemann went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and two runs in a win over the Red Sox on Wednesday.

    Schuemann made plenty of noise out of the bottom of the order, generating one of two multi-hit efforts for the Athletics on the night while recording a steal for the second straight game. The rookie shortstop also has an eight-game on-base streak, and he's now posted multi-hit tallies twice in the last four contests.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Grabs eighth steal Tuesday

    Schuemann went 1-for-3 with a stolen base and a walk in a loss to the Red Sox on Tuesday.

    The rookie extended his on-base streak to seven games, a stretch during which he's cobbled together an impressive .350 average and 1.130 OPS, along with three of his eight steals on the season. Schuemann has a modest four-game hitting streak going as well, pushing his improving season slash line to .236/.329/.347 across 234 plate appearances.

  • Athletics' Max Schuemann: Belts three-run homer

    Schuemann went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run, an additional run and a walk in Saturday's 19-8 rout of Baltimore.

    Schuemann mashed Oakland's second three-run homer of the game in the second inning to give the A's an early 6-0 lead. It was his second long ball over his past four contests following a 27-game stretch in which he failed to go deep. Schuemann's multi-hit performance Saturday was his first since June 1, a span of 27 games.
