Ross Stripling - Ups volume in second rehab startStripling (elbow) started Triple-A Las Vegas' win over Sugar Land on Sunday and allowed three earned runs on five hits and a walk over three innings. He struck out one.
ImpactStripling was originally slated to remain with Single-A Stockton for his second rehab start after a rocky start to his rehab assignment there Tuesday, but those plans were apparently altered in recent days. The right-hander worked up to 56 pitches in Sunday's start for the Aviators, locating 37 of his offerings for strikes. The three runs charged to Stripling came off a pair of singles and a sacrifice fly, so he did do a serviceable job limiting hard contact. Stripling could potentially make at least one more rehab start coming out of the All-Star break in order to further build up his pitch count before returning to the Athletics' rotation.

Paul Blackburn - Completes second rehab outingBlackburn (foot) worked two-thirds of an inning in Triple-A Las Vegas' win over Sugar Land on Sunday, allowing a hit and a walk while recording a strikeout. He also hit a batter.
ImpactBlackburn's busy outing featured 23 pitches due to his subpar control, with the right-hander locating 14 of those offerings for strikes. Blackburn was originally slated to remain with Single-A Stockton for Sunday's rehab appearance after an even poorer outing that also lasted two-thirds of an inning Tuesday. However, that plan was apparently altered in recent days, and Blackburn may now remain with the Aviators for the duration of his rehab assignment. Given how his first two minor-league appearances have unfolded, Blackburn will likely remain on the farm for at least another couple of outings, including a potential start.
