OAKLAND -- Felix Doubront has been diagnosed with a sprained left elbow and was placed on the disabled list by the A's, meaning Oakland will need someone else to start Friday's game in Seattle.
To take Doubront's place on the roster for the moment, outfielder Andrew Lambo was recalled from Triple-A Nashville less than 48 hours after being told he hadn't made the club.A's primary options for the Friday start would be either right-hander Jesse Hahn or left-hander Eric Surkamp.Doubront started for the A's against the Giants Saturday, but left the game after the first inning with left forearm tightness.
