He likely will head out on a rehab assignment soon, one that is likely to extend past Sunday, the day he is first eligible to come off the DL.
April 29, 2008
Travis Buck ran and shagged flyballs before the game on Monday and said it went well, according to the SF Chronicle. If he does that for a few days without pain, he is likely to go on a rehab assignment. He is recovering from shin splints while on the DL.

April 12, 2008
Travis Buck is nursing shin splints, but will probably be in the lineup today against hurler Fausto Carmona and the Indians, according to MLB.com.
April 11, 2008
Travis Buck will sit out the A's game on Friday due to shin splints, this according to the San Francisco Chronicle. The report also went on to say that Buck should be back in the lineup on Saturday. After an awful start to the year, Buck has seven hits and four RBI in his last three games so you'll want to keep him active and hope he only misses this one game.
April 8, 2008
Travis Buck finally picked up his first hit of the year Tuesday, doubling in a run in the second while also adding a single later on. He finished with a 2-for-6 night at the plate, and while Buck is still batting just .074 on the year, that's certainly better than .000.
April 5, 2008
Travis Buck was on the bench on Saturday as the A's faced C.C. Sabathia as Buck is currently 0-for-18 with nine strikeouts. Buck is being counted on to provide a solid bat from the top of the A's lineup this season, and given the A"s dearth of top level talent, there would appear to be plenty of playing time coming his way to prove his worth at the major league level.
April 2, 2008
Travis Buck has been benched for Wednesday's game against Boston, MLB.com. He was off to a dreadful 0-for-14 start and stated, "The way I'm swinging. I won't be able to hit anyone right now."
April 2, 2008
Travis Buck went 0-for-4 with four strikeouts against Boston on Tuesday. He notably went 0-for-5 on opening day as well, and could be playing himself out of a job.
March 26, 2008
Travis Buck followed up his 0-for-5 opening day game against the Red Sox, with an 0-for-5 game two. Buck, who hit .288 in 285 at-bats in 2007 will eventually get warm up, but starting the season 0-for-10 is the last thing a player, and his fantasy managers, want or need.
March 25, 2008
Travis Buck started in left field in Oakland's season opener against Boston, but he failed to impress as he went 0-for-5 with two strikeouts. Buck hit .288 over 285 at-bats in 2007, so he is capable of favorable production.
