Worth noting

• The A's acquired Minor League catcher Bryan Anderson from the Reds for international money on Sunday.

Anderson began the season at Double-A Pensacola, hitting .343 with five homers in 21 games before being promoted in May to Triple-A Louisville, where he was batting .302 in 52 games. He's a .210 career hitter in 35 Major League contests.

• Jed Lowrie (fractured finger) and Nick Punto (right hamstring) will travel with the team to Houston on Monday and continue their rehabs on the road.
