9 months agoThe Oakland Athletics placed first baseman Tyler Soderstrom (wrist) on the 10-day injured list on Thursday with a left-wrist bone bruise and recalled outfielder Seth Brown from Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move. Brown earns his way back to the big leagues after hitting .403 with a 1.152 OPS, seven home runs, three doubles and 24 RBI in 16 games with Vegas. He'll make the start at first base on Thursday and will hit sixth against Boston Red Sox right-hander Tanner Houck and should play regularly for the A's against right-handed pitching, at least until Soderstrom is able to return sometime after next week's All-Star break. In his second big-league season in 2024, Soderstrom has slashed just .219/.307/.404 with a .711 OPS, seven home runs, 20 RBI and 12 runs scored in 49 games. He has four hits in 22 at-bats with a double and three K's in six games in July, so perhaps some time off will do him well.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

3 days agoAthletics first baseman Tyler Soderstrom got his 2025 regular season off to a great start by going 2-for-3 with a pair of solo home runs on Thursday night. Unfortunately for the A's, the rest of the lineup combined to go a brutal 1-for-26 in their 4-2 loss in Seattle. Soderstrom went yard in the fifth off Logan Gilbert to give his team the 1-0 lead and hit another home run off Trent Thornton in the eighth to put them up 2-1. The bullpen couldn't hold the lead, though, so the team fell to 0-1. Soderstrom is starting his first full season in the MLB after hitting .233 with nine home runs and a .322 wOBA in 61 games last season. He's off to a fast start and will look to continue his success through the weekend in Seattle. He got some preseason hype as a potential breakout this season, and he definitely lived up to that hype in game No. 1.--Zach Thompson - RotoBaller

1 month agoAthletics first baseman Tyler Soderstrom could still be in the mix to serve as the team's backup catcher. Soderstrom was drafted as a catcher with the 26th pick in the 2020 MLB Draft. However, the 23-year-old has begun to transition to first base. Last summer, Soderstrom made just one start behind the dish in the majors last season compared to the 59 he made at first base. However, he started 21 games behind the plate in the minor leagues compared to eight at first base. While Shea Langeliers is expected to be the team's primary backstop, Soderstrom could eventually earn the No. 2 role while still operating as their top first baseman. His defensive flexibility would allow the Athletics to have another player on their roster as he would be available to play two positions. Despite playing in only 60 MLB games last season, Soderstrom flashed high power upside as he went deep nine times and held a .429 SLG. He is worth a look as a late-round flier in deeper formats as he could gain catcher eligibility, which would boost his fantasy value.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

7 months agoOakland Athletics first baseman/catcher Tyler Soderstrom (wrist) was activated off the 10-day injured list on Saturday afternoon. In a corresponding move, the Athletics optioned Armando Alvarez. The 22-year-old was kept out of MLB action for just over two months due to a bone bruise on his left wrist. Before the injury, Soderstrom flashed high-upside power at times but struggled to find consistency as he posted a mere .219/.307/.404 line with seven round-trippers across 49 games. Under the hood, he boasted a 14.7% barrel rate and a 52.9% hard-hit rate, which suggests his power production was not a fluke. Fantasy managers looking for a second catcher with an upside for power should consider adding the former first-round pick, as he should see consistent playing time down the stretch.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

7 months agoOakland Athletics first baseman Tyler Soderstrom (wrist) played in his first minor-league rehab game on Thursday with Triple-A Las Vegas as the designated hitter and went 1-for-3 with a home run, two RBI, a run scored and a strikeout. Soderstrom's homer was a two-run shot and came on his final plate appearance of the contest in the sixth inning. Expect the A's to give him at least a few more rehab games and a chance to play first base with Vegas before they activate him from the injured list to close out the 2024 season in the big leagues in the last few weeks of the year. The 22-year-old hasn't played with the A's since July 9 due to a wrist injury, but the left-handed slugger should see regular playing time once he's back in Oakland. Soderstrom has improved slightly from his 45-game debut in 2023, batting .219 (32-for-146) this year with seven home runs and 20 RBI in 49 games played.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
