Oakland Athletics outfielder Brent Rooker is not in the lineup on Saturday against the Texas Rangers. Rooker has been a revelation for the lowly A's and fantasy managers that decided to add him to their rosters back in April. He slugged a walk-off home run in Friday's contest so the team is rewarding him with a day off on Saturday. For the year, the 28-year-old is slashing .319/.428/.673 with 11 home runs, 29 RBI, and a stolen base over 113 at-bats. He should be ready to rock for Sunday's series finale against Texas.--Jon Mathisen - RotoBaller

Athletics designated hitter Brent Rooker went 2-for-4 with a home run, walk, and an additional run scored in his team's 8-5 loss to the Texas Rangers on Tuesday. Rooker's seventh long ball of the season came off Rangers reliever Jacob Webb in the bottom of the eighth inning to cut the A's deficit to three, but that was the last run they could plate in the contest. The lefty slugger is starting to heat up, racking up four multi-hit outings across his previous seven appearances. Over that stretch, he's batting a cool .379 (11-for-29) with three home runs, one double, five RBI, and eight runs scored. Rooker has maintained his exit velocity (91.9 mph in 2025) figures while cutting his strikeout percentage (25.7%) by three points from (28.8%) in 2024.--Alex Ciulla

Athletics outfielder Brent Rooker came up clutch for his team during Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. Rooker was quiet in this game until smacking a solo home run in the sixth inning to give his team the lead. The A's would hold onto the lead and take a 3-1 victory over Milwaukee. Rooker now has six homers on the season including two of them in his last three games. The veteran outfielder continues to be a must-start in all fantasy leagues.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller

Athletics outfielder Brent Rooker is making the start in left field and is batting cleanup for the A's against the Chicago White Sox and right-hander Davis Martin in Thursday's series finale. The A's recently moved Rooker to left field for the first time all season, suggesting they may be getting close to calling up prospect Nick Kurtz after his red-hot start in the minors. The 30-year-old Rooker didn't play the field after May last year due to a forearm injury that required offseason surgery, but he's healthy enough to play the field now and could regain eligibility in the outfield for fantasy managers in 2025. He's off to a slow start offensively, slashing .208/.256/.403 with a .659 OPS, but he does have four home runs, a double, a triple, eight RBI and 10 runs scored in his first 18 games. Rooker hit a combined 69 home runs the last two years, making him a strong power source in fantasy.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Athletics designated hitter Brent Rooker went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run during their loss to the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday evening. Rooker went deep in the opening frame off Chicago Cubs left-handed pitcher Justin Steele. This two-run shot also scored outfielder Lawrence Butler. Later in the contest, he would cross home plate a second time on a Shea Langeliers home run. Rooker has turned the corner since going 0-for-4 with four strikeouts on Opening Day, going 7-for-22 with two home runs, five RBI, and four runs across his previous five contests. Last summer, the 30-year-old posted an impressive .293/.365/.562 slash line with 26 doubles and 39 home runs. His home run total was the fourth-most in the American League. He will look to stay hot on Wednesday, facing Jameson Taillon.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller
