Hoglund has a left hip impingement and was placed on the 15-day injured list retroactive to Sunday. He was 1-3 with a 6.40 ERA in six starts before getting hurt.
Bleday was on the opening day roster for the A's and was hitting .204 with six homers and 18 RBIs in 47 games when he was optioned to Las Vegas on May 23. He went 10 for 27 with a home run, six RBIs in six games with the Aviators.
Alvarado joins the A's for the second time this year. He was recalled for the first time on May 9 and allowed three runs on four hits and two walks in 2 2/3 innings over two appearances. He is 1-1 with six saves and a 4.57 ERA for the Aviators.
