Sent back to Vegas The Athletics optioned Muncy to Triple-A Las Vegas on Saturday.

Impact Muncy was brought up from Triple-A on Tuesday to provide infield depth when Joshua Kuroda-Grauer (groin) landed on the injured list, but the former will now head back to the minors following Nick Kurtz's (thumb) return from the IL. Muncy has slashed .223/.298/.389 across 178 plate appearances with the Athletics this season and would likely be one of the first choices to return to Sacramento if the big club's infield depth is tested again down the stretch.

Back in big leagues The Athletics recalled Muncy from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday.

Impact With Joshua Kuroda-Grauer (groin) facing an extended stay on the injured list, Muncy will rejoin the big club to bolster its infield depth. The 23-year-old owns just a .699 OPS through 175 plate appearances in the majors this season, but he's gone 7-for-20 with two homers, five RBI and five runs scored in five games since his demotion to Triple-A on July 8. He and Tommy White will likely compete for starts at the hot corner until Kuroda-Grauer is healthy.

Wrobleski Becomes 6th Dodgers All-Star, Peters Gets Nod After White Sox Cycle

Demoted to Triple-A The Athletics optioned Muncy to Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday.

Impact Muncy is slashing .227/.303/.396 with a 33.1 percent strikeout rate this season, and his playing time has been a bit sporadic since he returned from the injured list in early June. With Muncy demoted to the minors and Tyler Soderstrom returning from the injured list, Zack Gelof should settle in as the club's primary third baseman.

Handling full-time role Muncy will start at third base and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Angels.

Impact He'll remain in the starting nine for an eighth straight game after going 5-for-23 (.217 average) with a home run, three walks, a stolen base, four RBI and two runs over the prior seven contests.

Smacks homer in loss Muncy went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to the Giants.

Impact Muncy opened the scoring with his eighth-inning blast. The infielder has handled a short-side platoon role since returning from a broken hand earlier in June. He's now batting .230 with a .725 OPS, five homers, 18 RBI, 20 runs scored, two stolen bases, six doubles and two triples over 38 games this season. Muncy could see an uptick in playing time if Zack Gelof (hand) and Jacob Wilson (shoulder) miss more action after sustaining injuries this week.
