Athletics optioned RHP Luis Morales to Triple-A Las Vegas.

Morales has been knocked around in three appearances with the A’s this season, posting a miserable 14.46 ERA, 3.11 WHIP and a cringe-inducing 7/12 K/BB ratio over 9 1/3 innings. He’ll attempt to work through his command issues at the minor league level.

Hunter Goodman hit his 35th homer in his return from the IL as the Rockies topped the Nationals 3-1 on Tuesday.

Goodman’s homer left the bat at 109.5 mph and was projected at 432 feet. He grounded out twice and struck out once in his other three at-bats tonight. In spite of the 12-day absence, Goodman is tied for fourth in the majors with 35 homers this season.

COL Starting Pitcher

Mason Adams held the Nationals to one run over four-plus innings in his major league debut Tuesday.

He struck out five. Adams, who has yet to throw more than 80 pitches since returning from Tommy John surgery in May, departed after 75 pitches tonight, and four solid innings was really just about all the Rockies were expecting from him. He’ll probably stick around and make another start Sunday against the Braves.

Jordan Romano

Jordan Romano turned in a hitless ninth for his 13th save Tuesday against the Nationals.

Romano improved to 9-for-10 in his save chances since joining the Rockies. It’s about at this point that the old Rockies would have given him a one-year, $10 million extension to lock him up for next season. We’d like to think the new front office isn’t so gullible, but the Mickey Moniak extension and the lack of activity at the trade deadline don’t bode particularly well.

Andrew Alvarez surrendered three runs in 4 2/3 innings to take a loss to the Rockies on Tuesday.

Alvarez struck out six, but it was still a weak effort against a Rockies team that historically struggles mightily in its first game or two after a homestand. Alvarez dropped to 2-6 with a 3.72 ERA. He’s in line to face the Marlins next.
