Athletics bring back LHP Jeffrey Springs from a hip injury to start at Kansas City

The Athletics have brought back left-handed pitcher Jeffrey Springs from the 15-day injured list due to a right hip injury. They plan to have him start in Wednesday night's game against Kansas City. Springs will be making his return in a crucial matchup. He currently stands with a 3-11 record and a 6.17 ERA this season, having struck out 88 batters over 108 innings.

Notably, he has surrendered the most home runs in the American League, with 28. In an effort to accommodate Springs' return, right-hander Seth Johnson has been optioned to Triple-A Las Vegas to make room on the roster.
