The Athletics optioned Holmes to Triple-A Las Vegas on Sunday, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Holmes was one of eight players sent to the Athletics' Triple-A affiliate in the team's latest round of roster cuts. During his last minor-league season in 2019, Holmes split time between Las Vegas and Double-A Midland, accruing a 3.23 ERA and 1.22 WHIP in 86.1 innings.

Strong spring continues
Holmes was credited with a save in a Cactus League win over the Padres on Friday, allowing one hit and hitting a batter over two scoreless innings while recording four strikeouts.
ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old has logged a trio of two-inning outings thus far, giving up just two hits and two walks while ringing up six strikeouts overall and allowing just one earned run. Holmes got up to Triple-A Las Vegas in 2019, albeit for just a 4.2-inning sample, posting a 1.93 ERA following a 3.31 figure across 81.2 frames at Double-A Midland earlier that same season. Given his impressive showing thus far, Holmes could be in the mix for an Opening Day bullpen roster spot.
