The Oakland A’s called up pitcher Daniel Gossett from Triple-A Nashville, the team announced Wednesday morning. The right-hander will make his MLB debut today in a start against the Miami Marlins, in place of the injured Andrew Triggs. To make room on the 25-man roster, 1B/OF Matt Olson was optioned back to the minors.
The 24-year-old Gossett was Oakland’s 2nd-round draft pick in 2014, and he enjoyed a breakout last season that catapulted him from High-A all the way up to a brief cameo in Triple-A Nashville. He stayed in Triple-A to begin this year, and after a shaky first month he settled down — since May 1 his ERA is 2.
