After third baseman Danny Valencia spent the minimum time on the 15-day disabled list with a hamstring strain, how might playing time be rearranged now that Valencia has returned?
Oakland A's third baseman Danny Valencia was activated following his 15-day stay on the disabled list with a minor hamstring strain. To make room on the active roster, the A's optioned utility player Tyler Ladendorf to Triple-A Nashville.
Valencia returns to the A's roster that has continued to struggle on offense since he exited the April 20 contest against the New York Yankees. The A's have been held to three runs or fewer in eight out of the 14 games Valencia has missed.
