A’s manager expects Montas to pitch at some point next week.
Meanwhile, the A’s are eager to get a first-hand look at another pitcher who just joined the roster.
The A’s are McKay’s third team this season, as he spent time back and forth between the Tampa Bay Rays and New York Yankees. McKay, 27, was claimed off waivers by the A’s from the Rays on July 12. He did not allow a run in his two relief appearances for Las Vegas and has a combined 3.45 ERA in Triple-A this season.
“Right now, we’re looking to get him into a role in the middle innings and assess from there, as all these guys have done, and kind of try to give them a softer landing spot if possible and build his confidence,” Kotsay said.Trainer’s room
