Athletics | Tommy John surgery for Felix Doubront

BHQ take: Doubront will, of course, miss the entirety of 2016. Eric Surkamp got the win in his first start, and that likely earns him a couple more at least. In addition, the middle of the OAK rotation is perhaps more solidified as well. Hill rebounded in his second start, and while his IP total will be an issue going forward, his projected 3.66 ERA balance is well worth owning.  —Rod Truesdell
 
Impact: Low
