Tyler Soderstrom News
Oakland Athletics catcher Tyler Soderstrom was sent down to Triple-A Las Vegas on Sunday. Soderstrom will get a little more seasoning in the minors while Shea Langeliers handles primary catcher duties on the big league squad. The move makes sense, as Soderstrom was slashing just .115/.172/.154 in 29 plate appearances this spring. Baseball America's number 73 prospect is still just 22 years old and has put up good numbers in the minors before, so dynasty owners shouldn't be too worried about him yet.
Oakland Athletics catcher/first baseman Tyler Soderstrom is absent from Tuesday's starting lineup for the game against the Boston Red Sox. With left-hander Joe Jacques on the bump, it might be a sign that the club wants to limit the left-handed rookie against southpaws. So far, through four games, Soderstrom owns a .231/.333/.231 slash line with no home runs. Jordan Diaz will take his spot in the lineup and bat third. The 22-year-old's offered some pop over 35 games with six home runs but is batting .238 with no speed. Still, fantasy managers in deeper leagues may want to take a chance on the young power bat in hopes he goes yard.
The Oakland Athletics are calling up catching prospect Tyler Soderstrom from Triple-A Las Vegas, according to sources, and he's set to make his major-league debut on Friday for the start of the second half of the season against the visiting Minnesota Twins. Soderstrom, the club's top overall prospect per MLB Pipeline, will get the call after slashing .254/.303/.536 with an .838 OPS, 20 home runs, 15 doubles, two triples, 59 RBI and 45 runs scored in 304 trips to the plate over 69 games at Vegas. The 21-year-old left-handed slugger can also play some first base. In a lost season, the A's are going to give Soderstrom and infield prospect Zack Gelof significant playing time to begin the second half, making them both worth immediate waiver-wire pickups in deeper leagues. Soderstrom makes consistent contact to all fields, although fantasy managers shouldn't expect too much too soon.
