A's Recall Gray; Demote Reineke

Official Press Release

Gray joins the A's for the fourth time this year and has appeared in one game in each of his first three stints.

Giambi still not activated; A's carrying 13 pitchers, leaving the bench short.

Gray's had a nice season in Sacramento:

Gray is 2-2 with 16 saves and a 1.54 ERA in 37 relief appearances.  He had just one blown save for a save percentage of 94.1% and his 16 saves are tied for the most in the A's organization and were sixth most in the Pacific Coast League. Gray allowed a .200 opponents batting average, which included a .189 (18 for 95) mark against right-handed hitters and .218 (12 for 55) against left-handers.

It's time to give him a long look - he's got to be a better option than Casilla at this point.
