The Oakland A’s announced their second round of September call-ups on Tuesday. The Triple-A Pacific Coast League played its final game of the regular season on Monday, which means the Nashville Sounds are done for the year. That freed up several more prospects to come audition in Oakland:
- RHP Raul Alcantara
- RHP Daniel Mengden
- DH Renato Nunez
- 2B Joey Wendle
Alcantara was not on the 40-man roster, after being designated for assignment earlier this season. To make room for him, RHP Paul Blackburn was transferred to the 60-day disabled list — he was already expected to miss most of the final month of the season with a hand injury, so this just makes it official.
