Fri, 10 May 2013 00:47:20 -0700 Oakland Athletics SP Bartolo Colon gave up six runs and eight hits in five innings Thursday, May 9, against the Cleveland Indians. Colon, who pitched for the Indians from 1997 to 2002, hadn't faced Cleveland since 2005. ''I felt good,'' Colon said. ''The only problem is the Cleveland team is hot right now.''
Wed, 24 Apr 2013 11:48:35 -0700 Oakland Athletics SP Bartolo Colon threw a seven-inning, complete-game rain-shortened contest against the Boston Red Sox Tuesday, April 23, and gave up three hits while walking one and striking out seven. Fantasy Tip: The less-than-ideal conditions probably aided in Colon's effectiveness against Boston hitters because he was throwing strikes. Colon stays around the zone usually, though, making him less likely to hurt your WHIP.
Wed, 17 Apr 2013 20:30:43 -0700 Oakland Athletics SP Bartolo Colon allowed one earned run, four hits and no walks over six innings in a win Wednesday, April 17, against the Houston Astros. He also struck out three batters in the 97-pitch quality start. Fantasy Tip: Colon has yet to walk a batter in 19 innings this season, and he lowered his ERA to 3.32. He is a must-start fantasy option in AL-only leagues, and a decent option depending on the matchup in mixed formats.
Sat, 06 Apr 2013 10:12:22 -0700 Confirming a previous report, the Oakland Athletics have reinstated SP Bartolo Colon from the suspended list. In a corresponding move, SP Dan Straily has been optioned to Triple-A Sacramento. Straily allowed two runs and five hits over 6 2/3 innings in a victory over the Houston Astros Friday, April 5, while walking none and striking out 11.
Tue, 02 Apr 2013 20:47:05 -0700 Oakland Athletics SP Bartolo Colon (suspension) will return from suspension to start Saturday, April 6, in a road start against the Houston Astros, according to manager Bob Melvin. He must be reinstated by that date, and a roster move will be made.
Thu, 21 Feb 2013 10:41:46 -0800 Oakland Athletics SPs Brett Anderson, Jarrod Parker, Tommy Milone, A.J. Griffin and Dan Straily are expected to round out the rotation to start the season with SP Bartolo Colon suspended. Colon will likely take Straily's spot when he returns. SPs Jesse Chavez will start the Cactus League opener Saturday, Feb. 23, followed by Ps Travis Blackley and Andrew Werner.
Thu, 31 Jan 2013 09:15:45 -0800 The evidence given in Miami New Times linking New York Yankees 3B Alex Rodriguez and others to the BioGenesis clinic in Florida is not enough for Major League Baseball to hand out suspension. MLB can discipline players without a positive test if there is a preponderance of evidence that the specific person doped or tried to dope. The ledgers that connect Rodriguez and the others to the clinic would have to be sworn to under oath by someone with direct knowledge of them, and Anthony Bosch has denied any wrongdoing in this situation. MLB would need a witness or some sort of documentation to suspend Rodriguez, Toronto Blue Jays OF Melky Cabrera, Oakland Athletics SP Bartolo Colon, Washington Nationals SP Gio Gonzalez, San Diego Padres C Yasmani Grandal or Texas Rangers OF Nelson Cruz. Cabrera, Colon and Grandal were each suspended 50 games last season after testing positive, and they would each face a second, 100-game ban if the league can establish that they used performance-enhancing drugs on other occasions.
Tue, 29 Jan 2013 05:50:52 -0800 Evidence has been discovered that the following players were sold performance-enhancing drugs from an anti-aging clinic in Miami called Biogenesis: New York Yankees 3B Alex Rodriguez, Washington Nationals SP Gio Gonzalez, Texas Rangers OF Nelson Cruz, Toronto Blue Jays OF Melky Cabrera, Detroit Tigers SP Cesar Carrillo, Oakland Athletics SP Bartolo Colon and San Diego Padres C Yasmani Grandal. Fantasy Tip: Some of the details aren't clear whether the players actually received or used banned substances. It's unclear whether any suspensions will or can be handed out. Losing Gonzalez or Cruz for 50 games would have significant fantasy implications. Stay tuned to this story, which should be a prevalent one for weeks to come.
Thu, 03 Jan 2013 09:23:15 -0800 Oakland Athletics SP Bartolo Colon has thrown allowed seven earned runs in 13 2/3 innings over four starts while striking out 13 and giving up one walk in winter ball. He's had two scoreless outings and assistant general manager David Forst said Colon "looked good in all four of his starts, based on reports." Colon is expected to enter spring training as part of the starting rotation.
Sun, 04 Nov 2012 12:03:09 -0800 Updating a previous report, Oakland Athletics SP Bartolo Colon's one-year deal could be worth more than $5 million if he reaches all of his incentives.
