Luis Medina is arranged to begin for Oakland Sunday while the Blue Jays will opt for lefty Yusei Kikuchi. Medina has functioned behind an opener in 3 of his last five starts, so there is an opportunity that the A's go that path once again for Sunday's video game. He permitted four hits, one run and started out 4 over 41/3 innings in his last beginning versus Cleveland. Medina's command has commonly been his largest question mark, yet he has actually provided just 2 strolls combined over his last 2 getaways (9 innings). It has been a backwards and forwards period for Kikuchi who will bring a 3.97 period and a 5.41 FIP into Sunday's beginning. Kikuchi had whatever operating in his last trip where he allowed simply 2 hits and struck out 6 over 6 scoreless innings versus the Marlins. He has actually enabled two runs or less in five-straight begins and has a 2.61 period with four beginnings in June. Mark Kotsay dropped Esteury Ruiz to the nine spot in the order for Saturday's video game and he went hitless with 2 strikeouts in 4 plate appearances. Tony Kemp relocated into the leadoff area and went 1-for-4 and was also hit by a pitch. Kemp has actually struck safely in eight of his last 9 games. Seth Brown struck his 5th crowning achievement of the period in the second inning of Saturday's game, but is hitting just.191/.257/.324 with a 65 wRC+ in June.
