| June 11, 2008 Ryan Sweeney is eligible to come off the DL on Friday, at which point the A's will have to decision to make with him, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

| May 29, 2008 The Athletics fear that outfielder Ryan Sweeney may have a broken toe, according to CBSsports.com.

| May 13, 2008 The offense was unable to solve the arm of Cleveland starter Paul Byrd, leaving Oakland with a 4-0 loss and a lack of players to note. On the bright side, CF Ryan Sweeney went 2-for-2 at the plate, the only player to post multiple hits on a night when no player in green and gold managed to get past first base. |
| April 19, 2008 Ryan Sweeney had two hits and two RBI for the A's on Saturday and now has five hits, two runs and two RBI in his last two games. |
| April 15, 2008 Ryan Sweeney is still being bothered by his strained right quad, and could miss today's game against the White Sox, according to MLB.com. He would like to play against his former team but stated, "I think I'm the emergency, emergency, emergency option. I've been getting treatment, and I'm going to try to run on it a little today, but I think they want to just wait until we get back to warmer weather to really test it." |
| April 14, 2008 Ryan Sweeney missed Sunday action because of a strained right quad, but hopes to play in the two-game series against the White Sox, according to MLB.com. He noted, "I didn't pull it. I don't think the ailment is too bad." |

| April 8, 2008 Ryan Sweeney is staking claim on the center field job for the A's. He had an RBI double as well as an RBI triple that proved to be the game-winner. Sweeney is batting a robust .438 on the year in 16 at-bats, while Chris Denorfia, who is competing with him for playing time, is hitting just .143. Sweeney should definitely receive the bulk of the playing time against righties, while Denorfia will still probably play most of the time against lefties. |
| April 6, 2008 Ryan Sweeney has fared very well against Cliff Lee, today's starting pitcher for Cleveland, according to MLB.com. Sweeney is hitting 6-for-23 with two homers and seven RBI against Lee, and this would be a good day to pencil him into your lineup. |

"We'll have it looked at Friday," A's manager Bob Green said in a report on the AP. "I think he'll be OK." Sweeney is hoping to to lock up the A's fourth OF spot with a solid spring, but if he misses any time there is a chance that the team will just send him to the minors for some more seasoning. |
| January 3, 2008 Ryan Sweeney was shipped to Oakland Thursday as a part of the Nick Swisher deal. Sweeney, who hit .270 with a .348 OBP, 10 homers and 47 RBI in 105 Triple-A games last year, will get a chance to win an outfield job this spring, but it's also possible he'll begin the year back in the minors. |
