The A’s announced on Friday afternoon that left-hander Jacob Lopez was being recalled from Triple-A, with righty Jason Alexander being optioned to make room:
The Athletics have recalled left-handed pitcher Jacob Lopez from Triple-A Las Vegas and optioned right-handed pitcher Jason Alexander to Las Vegas.

Lopez will slide right into Alexander’s role as a second long man in the bullpen, just left-handed. The 27-year old was acquired this off-season in the same trade that brought fellow lefty Jeffrey Springs to the A’s.
