The Oakland A’s announced a flurry of moves Tuesday afternoon. In terms of arrivals, they recalled RHP Cesar Valdez and OF Ryan LaMarre from Triple-A Nashville, and to make room on the roster they placed OF Rajai Davis on the 10-day disabled list and designated RHP Raul Alcantara for assignment.
Valdez has already pitched for the A’s this season, making a spot start last Thursday in place of the injured Kendall Graveman. In that game, he did a decent job of eating a few innings (4 ip, 3 runs, 4 Ks, 2 BB, 5 hits) in an eventual Oakland victory.
