Oakland Athletics To Call Up Catcher Before End Of Season

The Oakland Athletics are currently in fire sale mode, so they do not have much to look forward to in 2022. Yet, while speaking with reporters, Matt Kawahara said that the team plans to call up top prospect Shea Langeliers before the season is over. That's exciting, at least.

Langeliers is having himself an impressive year in Triple-A Las Vegas, so all eyes will be on him once he's officially in the majors. In 87 games, he has 19 home runs, 53 RBIs, and a .281 batting average. That's a very solid year in terms of both contact and power, so it will be cool to see what he can do in the majors offensively.

Nevertheless, keep an eye out for an official Langeliers call-up in the near future.
