A's reliever Santiago Casilla placed on DL with shoulder strain

OAKLAND, Calif. -- The Oakland Athletics have put reliever Santiago Casilla on the 10-day disabled list with a strained right shoulder.

The A's made the move Saturday. They also optioned right-handed pitcher Josh Lucas to Triple-A Nashville and recalled righties Chris Bassitt and Carlos Ramirez from their top affiliate.

Casilla experienced a similar injury in spring training, A's manager Bob Melvin said. The injury isn't thought to be serious.

Casilla is 0-0 with one save and a 3.32 ERA in 16 games. He helped San Francisco win three World Series championships.
