Stephen Vogt Stats

Oakland Athletics catcher Stephen Vogt announced that he will retire from professional baseball after this season. Vogt will retire a 10-year veteran (six seasons with the A's) in which he was a two-time All-Star. The 37-year-old played for the A's, Rays, Diamondbacks, Giants, Braves and Brewers during his career. Vogt currently has a .239/.302/.406 slash line with 81 home runs, 309 RBI, 256 runs scored and five stolen bases in his 784 career games. He made the All-Star team in back-to-back seasons in 2015 and 2016 with Oakland, and he hit a career-high 18 home runs while driving in 71 runs in 2015.

The Oakland Athletics reinstated catcher Stephen Vogt (knee) from the injured list on Tuesday and called up infielder Matt Davidson from Triple-A Las Vegas. In corresponding moves, Sheldon Neuse was optioned to the minors and reliever Parker Markel was designated for assignment. Vogt was out with a sprained right knee since late April, and he went 1-for-14 with a solo home run in six games before his injury. The 37-year-old veteran backstop should help back up Sean Murphy for the A's and has extremely limited fantasy appeal at this point of his career.

The Oakland Athletics placed veteran catcher Stephen Vogt (knee) on the 10-day injured list on Thursday and reinstated catcher Austin Allen from the COVID-19 list in a corresponding move. The A's also designated Miguel Romero for assignment and removed the substitute player designation from Christian Bethancourt. Vogt is dealing with a Grade 2 sprain in his right knee and will need to take some time off the field to recover. The 37-year-old suffered his knee injury on Wednesday against the Baltimore Orioles and doesn't have a timetable for a return. Allen will back up Sean Murphy with Vogt sidelined. Vogt had just one hit in 14 at-bats over six games and wasn't much of a fantasy option to begin with.
