Brady Basso Injury: Reinstated off IL and optioned

The Athletics reinstated Basso (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Las Vegas on Monday.

Basso began the season on the IL while recovering from a left shoulder strain, then experienced a setback in June during his rehab assignment that resulted in him being shut down from throwing for a spell. He was given the green light to restart his rehab assignment in Triple-A last week, and after making two appearances for Las Vegas, Basso will now remain with the affiliate since the Athletics didn't have an opening for him in the bullpen. The Athletics reopened a spot for Basso on the 40-man roster by transferring catcher Austin Wynns (abdomen) from the 10-day IL to the 60-day IL in a corresponding move.
