The Oakland A’s roster continued to churn on Wednesday, as the team announced several moves to account for new injuries and evolving COVID situations. The latest updates:
- LHP A.J. Puk reinstated from COVID injured list
- LHP Zack Logue sent down to Triple-A
- IF Kevin Smith to 10-day injured list
- OF Mickey McDonald called up from Triple-A
The moves came altogether in one swoop, but they can be broken into two convenient pairs.
Puk returns, Logue down
Puk was on the COVID IL along with a half-dozen other players, and Logue was one of the emergency substitutes who was called up using special rules to replace COVID absences.
