Oakland Athletics Acquire Pitcher Austin Adams from Mets

The trade, made for cash considerations, comes as the Athletics place Trevor Gott on the 60-day injured list due to an upcoming Tommy John surgery.

  • The Oakland Athletics acquired right-hander Austin Adams from the New York Mets on Sunday for cash considerations.
  • Adams, 32, has a career ERA of 4.17 across 132 appearances in the major leagues.
  • To make room for Adams, the Athletics placed right-hander Trevor Gott on the 60-day injured list, as Gott is expected to undergo Tommy John surgery and miss the entire season.

  • Adams was assigned outright to Triple-A Syracuse on Feb. 12 and had a 6.75 ERA over six games with the Mets during spring training.
