Oakland activated Piscotty (calf) from the 10-day injured list, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. He'll serve as the Athletics' designated hitter and No. 5 hitter in Tuesday's game against the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Piscotty had been out since early May with a strained left calf, but he's ready to go after posting an .863 OPS across five rehab games. His .225/.340/.325 line prior to the injury was mediocre at best, but the Athletics don't have a lot of compelling options anywhere in their lineup, so Piscotty could have the chance to carve out a meaningful role upon his return.
