Kila Ka’aihue

Kila Ka’aihue (hamstring) is out of the A’s starting lineup Monday against the Angels.

Ka’aihue hasn’t played since Friday due to right hamstring soreness. Consider him day-to-day for now. Daric Barton will make the start at first base Monday while Jonny Gomes serves as the DH against right-hander Dan Haren.

Kila Ka’aihue homered and doubled in a losing cause Thursday against the A’s.

Ka’aihue was 1-for-13 in his previous three starts and he hadn’t homered in 64 at-bats this season prior to tonight. The A’s are waiting for either he or Daric Barton to step up and claim the starting job at first base. Ka’aihue helped his cause tonight.

Kila Ka’aihue went 2-for-6 and drove in the game-winning run in the 14th against the White Sox on Wednesday.

The A’s picked Ka’aihue over Brandon Allen earlier this month, and he’s played well in limited action, going 12-for-36. If he can get his power stroke going, he could wrestle the first-base job away from the struggling Daric Barton.
