Rest-of-Season Projections
Ticketed for start Wednesday
The Athletics will call up Brooks from Triple-A Las Vegas to start Wednesday's game against the Astros in Houston, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
With six starters on the injured list and with another two in Alex Wood (shoulder) and Osvaldo Bido (finger) considered day-to-day, the Athletics will bring Brooks up from Triple-A to help patch one of the many holes in the rotation. Currently in the midst of his third stint in the Oakland organization after signing a minor-league deal in February, Brooks will be making his first appearance in the majors since 2022 and his first start in the big leagues since 2019. The 34-year-old right-hander has turned in underwhelming ratios at Triple-A this season (4.57 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 32:10 K:BB in 43.1 innings), though his numbers look more favorable when considering the hitter-friendly context of the Pacific Coast League.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2017
2016
2015
The Cubs acquired Brooks from Oakland for Chris Coghlan in February, but he was never healthy in 2016 after landing on the disabled list with a hip contusion in early April. Despite efforts to get back in the mix at Iowa, Brooks was limited just five appearances -- four starts -- in the Pacific Coast League before he was moved to the 60-day DL in August. In his last healthy campaign (2015), Brooks was effective as a starter at Triple-A, relying on good control to survive in the hitter-friendly PCL, but his limited exposure to big league hitters yielded poor results (6.67 ERA, 1.46 HR/9). Brooks remained on the Cubs' 40-man roster at the start of the offseason, suggesting that the front office sees him as a useful organizational piece, perhaps capable of contributing in long relief or as an option to make spot starts while working mostly as a starter at Iowa if he's able to return to health in 2017.
