Brooks, 34, signed a minor league contract with the Athletics last winter and was called up last month with key veterans including Alex Wood, Ross Stripling and Paul Blackburn injured.

Brooks had a 5.82 ERA and FIP 5.59 in 21 2/3 innings in four starts. His strikeout rate was 6% and his walk rate was 10%.

Brooks was transferred to Triple-A earlier this month after right-hander Luis Medina was released from the 60-day IL.

This time, he will reportedly be used as a long relief pitcher, not a starter.
