The A's will have one of their key hitters back in the fold as they begin a nine-game road trip Friday.

Third baseman Danny Valencia was activated from the 15-day disabled list and is expected to be in the lineup for the series opener against the Baltimore Orioles.

Tyler Ladendorf was optioned to Triple-A Nashville.

Valencia had been sidelined since April 21 with a strained left hamstring and went 1-for-7 with a homer in two rehab games with Single-A Stockton. Chris Coghlan had been manning third base in Valencia's absence but will go back to being a utility man.
