The daily roster churn continues!
The Oakland A’s called up two players Sunday morning, relief pitcher Domingo Tapia and first baseman Dermis Garcia.
At least one move was inevitable today, because the A’s had an open spot on their active roster. Yesterday they traded C/1B Christian Bethancourt to the Rays, but they didn’t call up a replacement right away, so they played with a short-handed bench on Saturday. Now Garcia comes up to take that vacant spot. Garcia also needed to be added to the 40-man roster, so he took Bethancourt’s old spot there too.
