Anthony Maldonado

Athletics recalled RHP Anthony Maldonado from Triple-A Las Vegas.

The 27-year-old right-hander will take the place of Osvaldo Bido on the A’s active roster. Maldonado has made six appearances with the Athletics this season, posting a troublesome 12.00 ERA, 2.50 WHIP and a 7/5 K/BB ratio over six innings of work. He’ll give manager Mark Kotsay another option to deploy in the middle innings.
