D-backs activate Gosselin from disabled list

DENVER -- The D-backs activated infielder Phil Gosselin from the 60-day disabled list to take the place of right-hander Allen Webster, who was optioned to Triple-A Reno following Sunday's game.

Gosselin was acquired by the D-backs on May 20 in a deal that saw the D-backs trade highly-regarded pitching prospect Touki Toussaint and dump Bronson Arroyo's $10.1 million salary to the Braves.

At the time of the deal, Gosselin was on the DL after undergoing surgery to repair a fractured left thumb that was injured earlier in May.

Gosselin was in the starting lineup at second base on Monday.
