Tyler Soderstrom's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Oakland Athletics first baseman Tyler Soderstrom (wrist) underwent recent testing to see the extent of his injury. The results showed the 22-year-old suffered a stress reaction but not a fracture. Soderstrom was placed on the 10-day injured list on July 11 and appears to have avoided a serious injury. Oakland skipper Mark Kotsay expressed that this was the best news the team could have hoped for. This positive news suggests that the former first-round selection could only be sidelined for a minimum stint on the injured list. Prior to the injury, Soderstrom was showcasing his power potential with seven long balls and 20 RBI across 49 games.

The 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.

Oakland Athletics first baseman Tyler Soderstrom's second homer of the season was the sole highlight of Monday's 6-1 loss at the San Diego Padres. Soderstrom went deep off of Dylan Cease in the top of the second inning, his first since he homered against the Texas Rangers on May 8 in his first game after being called up. The rookie is hitting .200/.324/.350, however, Soderstrom is hitting .250/.368/.438 with an .806 OPS in 16 at-bats this month. Soderstrom is a promising source of power, and if the A's continue to be patient, he is capable of production that fantasy managers should keep an eye on as the season goes on in deeper leagues.

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.
