Description

On today's Farm Friday, we're checking in on the Oakland Athletics! Daniel Susac (#3) is one of many well-regarded catchers in this system, and he spent time in Single-A Stockton after the draft with TJ rehabee Gunner Hoglund (#10), who was moved from Toronto in the Matt Chapman deal. High-A Lansing, the Lugnuts, saw MLB's other Max Muncy (#6), this one an infielder from the 2021 MLB draft, spend time with the club. Double-A Midland features some good pitchers who had injuries and bad numbers this season in RHPs JT Ginn (#8) and Ryan Cusick (#13), who are both spending time in the Arizona Fall League to make up some innings. Triple-A Las Vegas has yet another well-regarded catcher in Tyler Soderstrom (#1), but he played more first base this season than catching and a decision needs to be made soon about his defensive home. He took throws from SS Zack Gelof (#4), who hits to all fields but had higher than ideal strikeouts due to chasing breaking stuff and is going to the AFL to work on it. MLB already saw some callups this year, namely C Shea Langeliers (#2) and LHP Ken Waldichuk (#5), as well as former prospect CF Cristian Pache, who may just never hit at the big league level.
