Impact Pache started in the last two games and went 2-for-5 with a double and two strikeouts. Ramon Laureano is shifting to center field while Chad Pinder starts in right.

On bench Wednesday Pache isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mariners.
Recaptures playing time Pache will start in center field and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Royals, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact After starting in two of the Athletics' previous three games when the team opposed left-handed pitchers, Pache will stick in the lineup Sunday with Kansas City bringing a right-hander (Brady Singer) to the hill. Pache and Luis Barrera look set to battle for one spot in Oakland's regular lineup versus right-handed pitching, as Ramon Laureano and Seth Brown appear locked in as the Athletics' other two primary outfielders.

Not in Tuesday's lineup Pache will sit Tuesday against Boston, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Pache finds himself on the bench for the fourth time in the last six games. He's been nowhere close to good enough at the plate this season, hitting .162/.208/.225, so it's unsurprising to see his playing time slip. Ramon Laureano will again slide to center field as Chad Pinder starts in right.

Scores game-winning run Sunday Pache went 2-for-4 with a walk and a run in a win over the Rangers on Sunday.
Impact The defensive-minded outfielder enjoyed some rare success out of the bottom of the order, posting one of five multi-hit efforts for the Athletics on the day and scoring the winning run on Jed Lowrie's ninth-inning single. Pache has managed to retain what is essentially an everyday role despite Ramon Laureano's return from suspension, and although he's carrying an unsightly .172/.211/.248 slash line, he's hitting .280 (7-for-25) with two doubles and three RBI over his last seven games.

Out of Friday's lineup Pache is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Rangers, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Timely two-bagger in loss Pache went 1-for-3 with a two-run double in a loss to the Mariners on Monday.
Impact Pache put the last two runs of the night on the board for the Athletics with his sixth-inning bases-loaded double. The defensive wizard has found success at the plate hard to come by as evidenced by his abysmal .159/.197/.238 slash line, but he's now hitting a solid .280 across 25 plate appearances with men in scoring position.

Riding pine Friday Pache isn't starting Friday against the Angels.
Impact Pache ha? gone just 1-for-17 with three walks and five strikeouts over the last eight matchups, and he'll be out of the lineup for a second straight game. Ramon Laureano will shift to center field while Luis Barrera starts in right.

Receives breather Wednesday Pache is on the bench for Wednesday's series finale against the Twins, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact The 23-year-old will get the day off Wednesday after starting three straight games, going 1-for-9 with a walk in those contests. Ramon Laureano will slide over to center while Luis Berrera enters the lineup in right field and will bat seventh.

Heads to bench Pache is not in the lineup Monday against the Tigers, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Pache has earned plenty of chances up to this point, starting 25 of Oakland's first 28 games, but how much of a role he'll hold onto now that Ramon Laureano is back from his PED suspension is unclear. Pache certainly hasn't made a strong case for everyday at-bats, hitting just .169/.187/.270, though his 48.5 percent hard-hit rate sits in the 84th percentile and suggests potential for a fair amount of improvement considering that his 25.3 percent strikeout rate isn't too far from average. He'll sit Monday, with Laureano sliding to center field and Luis Barrera starting in right.

Sits Sunday Pache is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.
Impact Seth Brown will step in as the Athletics' center fielder while Pache sits for the first time in four games. The 23-year-old rookie is slashing .203/.225/.333 with two home runs, no stolen bases, nine runs and six RBI in his first 71 plate appearances with Oakland.

Laces first big-league triple Pache went 1-for-4 with a triple in a win over the Giants on Wednesday.
Impact Pache's seventh-inning three-bagger was the first of his career and extended his on-base streak to six games. The young outfielder has shown some signs of life at the plate in what is currently his second-longest big-league stint, knocking a pair of home runs in addition to Wednesday's triple and an April 10 double.

Resting Sunday Pache is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.
Impact Pache will sit for only the second time this season while the Athletics give Mickey McDonald a look in center field. Though the 23-year-old Pache has brought quality defense to the Oakland outfield, he's not making much of a fantasy splash with a .208 average, two home runs, no steals, seven runs and six RBI over 54 plate appearances on the campaign.

Launches second homer Pache went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a win over the Orioles on Thursday.
Impact Pache opened the scoring on the night with a 381-foot solo blast in the third to left field, his second round tripper of the season. The 23-year-old continues to handle an everyday role in center field while Ramon Laureano finishes off his suspension, and although his .208/.208/.354 slash line leaves plenty to be desired, his current 22.9 percent strikeout rate is a welcome improvement from the 36.8 percent figure he generated over 68 plate appearances with Atlanta in 2021.

Launches game-winning homer Pache went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 7-5 win over the Blue Jays.
Impact With the score tied 5-5 in the top of the ninth inning, Pache drove a hanging slider from Julian Merryweather over the wall in right-center field for the deciding runs. The homer was the first of the season for Pache and just the second of the young outfielder's MLB career, but he's off to a solid start to his Oakland tenure, batting .267 (8-for-30) with five runs and four RBI through nine games.

Receives rest day Pache is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.
Impact After starting each of the first four games of the season, Pache will cede his spot in center field to Seth Brown on Tuesday. Pache brings most of his value to the Athletics through his stellar defense in center field, but he's at least been serviceable at the dish to begin the season. He's gone 4-for-15 with a double and three runs scored thus far.
