KEY GAME INFORMATION
OAKLAND: 2016: 69-93, fifth place
Manager: Bob Melvin (seventh season)
Who's new? CF Rajai Davis, OF Matt Joyce, 3B Trevor Plouffe, IF Adam Rosales, RHP Santiago Casilla
Who's gone? IF/OF Danny Valencia, OF Brett Eibner, 2B Eric Sogard, 2B Tyler Ladendorf, LHP Dillon Overton, RHP Fernando Rodriguez
Projected lineup: CF Rajai Davis (.249, 12 HR, 48 RBI, 43 SB with Indians), C Stephen Vogt (.251, 14, 56), DH Ryon Healy (.305, 13, 37 in 72 games), LF Khris Davis (.247, 42, 102), RF Matt Joyce (.242, 13, 42 with Pirates) or Mark Canha (.122, 3, 6 in 16 games), SS Marcus Semien (.238, 27, 75, 10 SB), 3B Trevor Plouffe (.260, 12, 47 with Twins), 1B Yonder Alonso (.253, 7, 56), 2B Jed Lowrie (.263, 2, 27 in 87 games)
Rotation: RH Kendall Graveman (10-11, 4.11), LH Sean Manaea (7-9, 3.86), RH Jharel Cotton (2-0, 2.15 in five games), RH Andrew Triggs (1-1, 4.31), RH Jesse Hahn (2-4, 6.02 in nine games) and Frankie Montas (0-0, 2.38 in four games at Triple-A)
Key relievers: RH Ryan Madson (6-7, 3.62, 30/37 SV), LH Sean Doolittle (2-3, 3.23), RH Santiago Casilla (2-5, 3.57 with Giants), RH Ryan Dull (5-5, 2.42), RH John Axford (6-4, 3.97), RH Liam Hendriks (0-4, 3.76), LH Daniel Coulombe (3-1, 4.53)
Hot spots: Fifth Starter and Second Base. Triggs, Hahn and Montas are the top candidates to fill out the rotation. Montas, who turns 24 before the season, is the youngest and has the highest ceiling. Hahn is the only one with something resembling a track record of success in the majors. Triggs showed potential in five starts last year. Second base will belong to prospect Franklin Barreto at some point. For now the position belongs to Lowrie, who figures to become trade bait as the A's begin their annual migration toward mathematical elimination.
Outlook: It's been a long two years since the A's played postseason baseball. Rather than rebuilding outright, the A's spent their offseason stocking up on veteran position players. Their strength is a young rotation led by right-hander Sonny Gray ' another trade candidate who's coming off the worst of his four major league seasons (5-11, 5.69 ERA) and will miss time with a lat strain. If Cotton, Manaea and Triggs pick up where they left off, pitching won't be the problem. No team scored fewer runs than the A's in 2016, and it still isn't obvious that their lineup improved. Their home turf will be renamed in honor of Rickey Henderson when the Angels visit Oakland for the opener; maybe Rickey can hit leadoff, too.
HOUSTON: 2016: 84-78, third place
Manager: A.J. Hinch (third season)
Who's new? RF Josh Reddick, CF Carlos Beltran, LF Nori Aoki, C Brian McCann, RHP Charlie Morton
Who's gone? C Jason Castro, INF Luis Valbuena, OF Colby Rasmus, RHP Doug Fister
Projected lineup: CF George Springer (.261, 29 HR, 82 RBI), 2B Jose Altuve (.338, 24, 96, 30 SB), SS Carlos Correa (.274, 20, 96, 13 SB), DH Carlos Beltran (.295, 29, 93 with Yankees and Rangers), C Brian McCann (.242, 20, 58 with Yankees) or Evan Gattis (.251, 32, 72), 3B Alex Bregman (.264, 8, 34 in 49 games), RF Josh Reddick (.281, 10, 37 with A's and Dodgers), 1B Yulieski Gurriel (.262, 3, 15), LF Nori Aoki (.283, 4, 28 with Mariners)
Rotation: LH Dallas Keuchel (9-12, 4.55 ERA), RH Collin McHugh (13-10, 4.34), RH Mike Fiers (11-8, 4.48), RH Lance McCullers (6-5, 3.22), RH Charlie Morton (1-1, 4.15 in four games with Phillies)
Key relievers: RH Ken Giles (2-5, 4.11, 15/20 SV), RH Luke Gregerson (4-3, 3.28, 15/21 SV), RH Will Harris (1-2, 2.25, 12/15 SV), RH Chris Devenski (4-4, 2.16), LH Tony Sipp (1-2, 4.95), RH Michael Feliz (8-1, 4.43)
Hot spots: Fifth starter and catcher. Hamstring issues limited 33-year-old Morton to four starts with the Phillies last season. That didn't stop the Astros from signing him to a two-year contract worth at least $14 million. Now, veteran Fiers and 24-year-old Joe Musgrove are on the bubble for the fifth starter's job. McCann and Gattis give the Astros a pair of veteran catchers with slugging potential. McCann has fewer weaknesses behind the plate; Gattis is the better all-around hitter. With Beltran aboard as the primary designated hitter, McCann and Gattis won't both be in the lineup on most nights.
Outlook: After slipping to third place in the AL West last year, the Astros' front office decided to double down on dingers rather than upgrade a rotation that lacks a true ace. The result: A lineup with eight potential 20-home run hitters, including possible MVP candidates in Altuve and Correa. Everyone returns from an impressive young bullpen with high strikeout potential. If the Astros are in contention by the trade deadline, the front office should have the financial flexibility to add a front-line starter. Then again, if Dallas Keuchel looks like the pitcher who won a Cy Young Award in 2015, Houston might not have a problem.
PREVIEW
Astros look to improve home record vs. A's
 

HOUSTON -- The Houston Astros have seemingly conquered all challenges en route to the best record in the majors with the midpoint of the season approaching.

The Astros (52-25) have overcome injuries to their rotation and nagging ailments to frontline starters yet have maintained an impressive winning clip through the maladies and obstacles.

What remains for Houston to shore up at the halfway pole is its pedestrian performance at Minute Maid Park in recent weeks. The Astros get another opportunity Tuesday in the opener of a three-game series with the Oakland Athletics.

The Astros have played great on the road this season, producing a league-leading 29-9 record away from Minute Maid Park, including a 20-4 run over their last three road trips.

Things haven't gone so swimmingly at home for the Astros, who are 23-16 at Minute Maid Park for a .589 winning percentage that ranks just seventh in the majors. Over their past two homestands, the Astros finished just 9-10 and won only two of six series during that stretch.

Houston has produced an .802 on-base-plus-slugging percentage at home compared to .850 on the road, which explains in part why the Astros have scored 78 fewer runs at Minute Maid Park while playing one more game there.

If Houston can receive another performance from its bullpen as it did on Sunday in Seattle -- seven scoreless innings in an 8-2 win -- perhaps success at home will follow.

"To a man, they came in and threw very well," Astros manager A.J. Hinch said. "Obviously, it's big to get a series win against these guys on the road the way they've been playing, but we needed all of our guys to step up. The versatility of our 'pen has been talked about over and over again. It was in full effect on the field. All of those guys did a nice job of stretching themselves to their limitations."

Right-hander Mike Fiers (5-2, 3.81 ERA) will start Tuesday for the Astros.

Fiers is 4-0 with a 1.72 ERA over his past five starts, a stretch that began after he was demoted to the bullpen only to immediately reclaim his spot in the rotation due to injury. Fiers is 1-2 with a 3.89 ERA over seven career starts against the Athletics.

Left-hander Sean Manaea (6-4, 4.05 ERA) will start for Oakland. He is 0-2 with a 2.23 ERA in six career starts against Houston, against whom he made his big-league debut on April 29, 2016. Manaea took the loss against the Astros on Wednesday, allowing three runs on seven hits and two walks with eight strikeouts over six innings in a 5-1 setback.

Unlike Houston, the Athletics have struggled on the road, going 12-25 away from the Oakland Coliseum. However, the Athletics completed their first road sweep of the season on Sunday in Chicago against the White Sox, an effort that in theory should help build some momentum as they ready for the Astros.

The Athletics are hitting .236 on the road, but they batted .283 and scored 18 runs in their sweep of the White Sox.

"It's no secret we struggle on the road," Athletics right-hander Sonny Gray said Sunday. "We're aware of it. We really put together three solid games here. We got big hits when we needed to, our starting pitching was really good, and our bullpen was really good. Hopefully that's something we can continue to do."
