TORONTO - The A’s had an extra reliever in the clubhouse Tuesday but probably won’t have him available until Thursday. Meanwhile, another reliever was still stuck in New York.
Ryan Dull threw 1 2/3 innings with Triple-A Nashville on Monday and joined the A’s Tuesday, but manager Bob Melvin said Dull isn’t likely to come off the DL until Thursday, although there is some chance it could be Wednesday depending on how he feels.
Frankie Montas, meanwhile, resolved his visa issues in New York on Tuesday afternoon but his flight won’t get him into Toronto until after 9 p.
