Mitch Spence - Works in long relief SundaySpence struck out five over 4.2 innings of relief in Sunday's 12-3 loss to the Marlins, giving up four earned runs on six hits and one walk.

ImpactSpence entered the game in the second inning after starter Joe Boyle was blasted for four runs in the opening frame before being pulled from the contest. Oakland placed Boyle on the 15-day injured list Monday with a back issue, so his absence will create an opening in the rotation. Given that he tossed a season-high 72 pitches in long relief Sunday, Spence should be reasonably stretched out for starting duty, though it's unclear if he'll rate as the Athletics' top option to take Boyle's next turn in the rotation, which comes up next weekend in Seattle.

Joe Boyle - Moved to ILThe Athletics placed Boyle on the 15-day IL on Monday due to a lower back strain.

ImpactBoyle struggled in his start Sunday against the Marlins, allowing four runs on one hit and three walks over one frame. The right-hander noted after the game that he tried to pitch through the lower back pain, but it "got progressively worse as I went on," per MLB.com. Boyle will be eligible to return for the start of the A's series against the Rockies on May 21. In a corresponding move, Oakland recalled left-hander Hogan Harris from Triple-A Las Vegas.

A.J. Puk - Starts up rehab assignmentPuk (shoulder) made the second appearance of his rehab assignment with the Marlins' rookie-level Florida Complex League affiliate Monday, striking out two over a scoreless inning.

ImpactPuk has turned in identical two-strikeout perfect innings in the FCL since he started up his rehab assignment Friday. The left-hander broke camp as a member of the Miami rotation, but after turning in a 9.22 ERA and 2.63 WHIP over his four starts before landing on the injured list April 20 with shoulder fatigue, he'll work out of the bullpen once the Marlins activate him. Puk could settle into a high-leverage role in front of closer Tanner Scott right away upon his return to the big club.
