BALTIMORE (AP) — The Oakland Athletics have activated infielder Adam Rosales from the 60-day disabled list and recalled infielder Scott Sizemore from Triple-A Sacramento.

Both moves were made Monday before the slumping A’s faced the Baltimore Orioles.

Rosales, who missed all of spring training with a fractured right foot, was poised to make his season debut as Oakland’s starting third baseman.

Sizemore was acquired from the Detroit Tigers on May 27 in exchange for left-hander David Purcey.

To make room for Rosales and Sizemore, the A’s optioned third baseman Kevin Kouzmanoff and right-hander Fautino De Los Santos to Sacramento.

Kouzmanoff was hitting .221 with four home runs and 17 RBIs in 46 games. He also had nine errors.

De Los Santos joined Oakland on Friday in Boston and made his big league debut Saturday.
