I guess that solves the mystery of what the A's would be doing in the starting rotation. Maybe if Aaron Brooks had been bombed yesterday, we'd see him heading somewhere else and Felix Doubront would be hitting the rotation, but in the aftermath of his fantastic start, Doubront will head to long relief, with R.J. Alvarez being optioned out to make room.

Coco Crisp, the story also notes, is with the team but not yet active, so no roster move for him yet. He and Pat Venditte are apparently set to be activated tomorrow.
