Athletics roster move: Laureano to IL, Capel recalled

The injury bug has bit again as the A’s placed outfielder Ramon Laureano on the injured list with a broken right hand:

To take his place on the roster, the club recalled fellow outfielder Conner Capel from Triple-A Las Vegas.

A fractured hand will lead to an extended absence for Laureano, who apparently broke it last week during the reverse boycott game. He took a couple days off before returning to the starting lineup but it was clear the hand was still a problem.
