Andrew Triggs performed yeoman's work for the Athletics on Friday, and Daniel Coulombe returns to take his place.
The Oakland Athletics have recalled left-handed reliever Daniel Coulombe and optioned right-handed reliever Andrew Triggs to Triple-A Nashville. Triggs threw 76 pitches on Friday in four innings of work after taking over for Jesse Hahn with two out in the first inning.
Triggs' pitch count is at least close to a career high for Triggs (low level minor league records are spotty before 2014), through he has thrown four or more innings on at least three other occasions in his professional career.
