The reliever had been sidelined since June 21 with right shoulder inflammation. Vizcaino threw a successful bullpen Monday
Kaleb McGary Jersey , but the team waited until Tuesday to activate the 27-year old.
Vizcaino is 2-2 with a 1.82 ERA with 15 saves in 17 opportunities. A.J. Minter has earned a pair of saves while throwing seven scoreless innings in Vizcaino’s absence.
Manager Brian Snitker indicated that Vizcaino would resume his role as closer, but would not use him in the same manner as he did prior to the injury. Vizcaino pitched in four games in five days before the injury.
Outfielder Michael Reed was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett to make room. The 25-year old was called up Monday.

The Washington Redskins had an incredible bounce back season this year. Many pundits and fans were ready to fire Jay Gruden due to Robert Griffin III not progressing as a quarterback under him. Instead he handed the reins to Kirk Cousins, a man who was a fourth round pick in 2012
Kendall Sheffield Jersey , the year they selected RG3 second overall. Fans were outraged over the team seemingly giving up on Griffin so quickly, as it seemed at times the organization wasn't patient enough with him. This season, the 'Skins shocked everybody by winning the division and by all looks of things
John Cominsky Jersey , they seem like they'll be able to contend for it again this coming year.When looking at Washington in the 21st century though, it's full of disappointment as the team has been notorious for overpaying free agents and whiffing on way too many draft picks. The franchise we knew as a powerhouse back in the early 80s and early 90s is long gone and while they may contend in a weak NFC East, they're still very far from a Super Bowl. The 'Skins have far more needs as a team
Qadree Ollison Jersey , and that will have to keep being addressed in future drafts. For now, we'll be looking at their first round picks of the 21st century and see where things went wrong. We'll be excluding this year's draft, as it's silly to re-draft for a player that hasn't even played yet. Josh Doctson is not on this list
Ed Oliver Jersey , as we'd like to see him play in the NFL first. We'll be going from 2001 to 2015. Going through this list, you'll also notice a common mistake that the 'Skins made and that was constantly giving up first round picks.
