Felipe, 25, was claimed off waivers from the San Diego Padres on June 21. He is 2-0 with a 1.80 ERA in five relief appearances for Las Vegas.
Garcia, 29, allowed two runs on four hits in 1 2/3 innings in Thursday’s 9-0 loss to the Tigers. He has an 8.31 ERA in seven relief appearances for the Athletics.
