Dany Jimenez: Headed to free agency
The Athletics non-tendered Jimenez on Friday.
The 30-year-old Jimenez will hit free agency after spending the last three seasons with the Athletics' organization, splitting time between the majors and Triple-A Las Vegas. In 2024, he posted a 4.13 ERA and 1.25 WHIP across 24 innings in Triple-A while registering a 4.91 ERA and 1.56 WHIP over 25.2 frames in the majors. Jimenez should garner interest from teams looking to add right-handed bullpen depth.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Optioned to Las Vegas
The Athletics optioned Jimenez to Triple-A Las Vegas on Saturday.
Jimenez has given up six earned runs in two innings over his last two appearances, so the A's will now send him to Triple-A in order to get back on track. Hogan Harris was recalled from Las Vegas to fill the open spot on Oakland's pitching staff.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Takes loss in IL return
Jimenez (1-3) took the extra-inning loss to the Giants on Sunday, allowing three runs (two earned) on two hits over one inning. He struck out three.
Jimenez was thrown right into the mix following his activation from the IL earlier in the day, as he was called on to preserve a 1-1 tie in the 10th after closer Mason Miller had handled the ninth. Jimenez immediately faltered by surrendering a two-run home run to Jerar Encarnacion with Matt Chapman aboard, and he followed it up by conceding a solo shot to the very next batter, Michael Conforto. The right-hander then bore down to record three consecutive swinging strikeouts, but the damage was done. Despite the long-ball issues in his return, Jimenez has typically been one of the most trusted later-inning options in Oakland's bullpen over the last two-plus seasons, and he's therefore likely to continue seeing plenty of hold opportunities, at minimum.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Returns from injured list
The Athletics reinstated Jimenez (oblique) from the 15-day injured list Sunday.
Jimenez landed on the shelf in late June due to an oblique strain, but he's ready to rejoin the A's after a four-game rehab assignment. The right-hander has a save and five holds with a 3.04 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 21:18 K:BB across 23.2 innings this season.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Scored on in third rehab outing
Jimenez (oblique) allowed two earned runs on two hits, a walk, a hit batsman and a wild pitch over one-plus inning in Triple-A Las Vegas' loss to Oklahoma City on Tuesday. He struck out one.
Jimenez saw his ERA dinged for the first time in his three minor-league rehab appearances, as he allowed one run on a wild pitch in the sixth before being charged with a second run after getting the hook following an inning-opening walk in the seventh. The poor control pushed Jimenez's pitch count up to 27, his highest yet by far during his time with the Aviators. It remains to be seen if the Athletics will deem the reliever ready for return despite the rough outing, or whether they'll give Jimenez at least one opportunity to reset himself.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Another successful rehab appearance
Jimenez (oblique) fired a scoreless, hitless seventh inning during Triple-A Las Vegas' win over Sacramento on Saturday, allowing a walk and recording a strikeout.
Jimenez put together a scoreless frame for the second time in as many rehab appearances, working up to 15 pitches Saturday. The right-hander appears to have tolerated his first two minor-league outings well thus far, so he may only need one more, if that, before being deemed ready for activation.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Clean inning in rehab debut
Jimenez (oblique) fired a scoreless inning in Triple-A Las Vegas' win over Sacramento on Tuesday, allowing a hit and recording two strikeouts.
Jimenez got through his one frame on a tidy 12 pitches, eight of which he located for strikes. The right-hander may only need to make a couple more rehab appearances before being deemed ready for activation, especially if they go as smoothly as Tuesday's did.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Beginning assignment Tuesday
Jimenez (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.
Jimenez has been on the shelf since late June working his way back from a Grade 2 strain in his left oblique. He threw live batting practice Saturday without any issues and now figures to be just a handful of minor-league outings away from returning to Oakland's bullpen. However, the A's haven't specified how many appearances they want the 30-year-old to make with Las Vegas.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Diagnosed with Grade 2 strain
Jimenez was diagnosed with a Grade 2 strain in his left oblique Sunday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.
The A's placed Jimenez on the 15-day injured list Sunday, though the severity of his injury will keep him sidelined at least 6-to-8 weeks. The 30-year-old righty has been a reliable piece of Oakland's bullpen this year, posting a 3.04 ERA and 1.44 WHIP through 23.2 innings. Aaron Brooks was selected from Triple-A Las Vegas to fill the open spot in Oakland's pitching staff.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Lands on IL with strained oblique
The Athletics placed Jimenez on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a strained left oblique.
In his most recent relief outing Wednesday against the Royals, Jimenez recorded a hold while throwing one scoreless inning, but he may have injured his oblique at some point. He's been one of Oakland's best options out of the bullpen since being recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on May 31, posting a 2.00 ERA and 1.33 WHIP over nine innings. With Jimenez headed to the IL, the Athletics selected Aaron Brooks' contract from Las Vegas in a corresponding move.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Grabs first save
Jimenez earned the save in Saturday's 11-9 win over Atlanta, allowing one hit while logging a strikeout in the ninth inning.
Atlanta made things interesting after Matt Olson led off the ninth with a double. However, Jimenez, making his first appearance in the majors following his demotion to Triple-A Las Vegas in early May, was able to set down the next three batters in order, earning his first save of the campaign. Mason Miller, the A's regular closer, was likely unavailable Saturday after pitching two innings Thursday. However, Jimenez could find himself slotted back into a high-leverage role due to Lucas Erceg (forearm) being placed on the IL. Overall, the 30-year-old Jimenez sports a 3.45 ERA with a 1.47 WHIP and 12:13 K:BB across 15.2 innings this year.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Recalled Friday
Jimenez was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas by Oakland on Friday.
Jimenez will rejoin the Athletics just a month after being sent down to the team's Triple-A affiliate. The 30-year-old righty has appeared in 15 games with Oakland this year, recording a 3.68 ERA and 1.50 WHIP across 14.2 innings.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Effective since demotion
Jimenez, who was optioned to Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday, fired two perfect innings with four strikeouts over his first two relief appearances with the Aviators on Friday and Sunday. He also recorded a save in the latter outing.
It's a small sample, but the decision to demote Jimenez after a couple of uneven outings earlier in May appears to have been a prudent one. The right-hander has breezed through his first pair of minor-league appearances, and if he continues on a similar track, Jimenez could soon find himself back on the big-league roster.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Sent to minors
The Athletics optioned Jimenez to Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday.
The right-hander began the season in a high-leverage role and didn't give up an earned run in his first five appearances, but he has a 5.40 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 9:8 K:BB over his past 10 innings. Six of those walks came in Jimenez's past four outings, and he'll head to Triple-A to work on his command.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Falters again Tuesday
Jimenez (1-1) was charged with a loss and a blown save against the Cardinals on Tuesday, allowing two earned runs on a hit and two walks over one-third of an inning.
Jimenez was entrusted with preserving a 2-1 lead when he entered in the sixth inning, but he immediately worked himself into trouble by allowing the first three hitters he faced to reach safely via a single and a pair of walks. Jimenez would go on to surrender back-to-back RBI sacrifice flies to allow the Cardinals to pull ahead by a run, which would prove the final margin of victory. The normally reliable right-hander has been a bit more vulnerable than usual of late, being saddled with blown saves in two of his last three outings while giving up a total of three runs on four hits over 2.2 innings in that span.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Blows save against Washington
Jimenez blew the save Friday against the Nationals. He allowed one run on two hits and no walks with two strikeouts in one inning.
After Mason Miller collected saves in two of the three previous games, Oakland manager Mark Kotsay called upon Jimenez for the save opportunity Friday night. It didn't take long for Kotsay to regret that decision as the 30-year-old reliever allowed a solo home run to his first batter faced, Jesse Winker. Jimenez's performance in Friday's save situation only further solidifies Mason Miller's grip on the Athletics' closer role.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Gets ninth-inning opportunity
Jimenez (1-0) picked up the win Sunday against Cleveland, giving up one hit and one walk in one scoreless inning. He didn't log a strikeout.
Jimenez was in contention for the closing role throughout the spring, but it appeared as though Mason Miller would be the first to get high-leverage ninth-inning duties. However, after Miller gave up two runs in one inning of work Saturday, Jimenez was handed the ball Sunday and took the A's home for their first win of the campaign. Considering the fluid closing situation and the lack of overall save chances, fantasy managers should be hesitant to rely upon any of Oakland's arms for save production.

Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Only one hiccup this spring
Jimenez, who fired a scoreless sixth inning Thursday against the Cubs during which he recorded two strikeouts, owns a 3.18 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and 7:2 K:BB across 5.2 innings over six Cactus League appearances this spring.
The right-hander hasn't been scored upon in five of his exhibition outings, only slipping up against the Brewers last Friday by allowing three runs (two earned) on two hits and a walk over one inning. Jimenez has garnered three wins, 12 saves and 11 holds across 59 appearances over the last two seasons with the Athletics, despite dealing with some injuries over that span. If he remains healthy, the 30-year-old should be in line for a heavy workload, one that could include more save opportunities than he's seen previously, as manager Mark Kotsay has indicated that Mason Miller will be eased gradually into closing duties.
