Athletics Designate Max Schuemann for Assignment
The Athletics designated infielder Max Schuemann for assignment on Friday, according to A's Communications. The move was made to clear a spot on the team's 40-man roster after the A's claimed infielder Andy Ibanez off waivers from the Los Angeles Dodgers. The 28-year-old former 20th-round pick in 2018 out of Eastern Michigan gets booted off the roster after hitting just .197/.295/.273 with a .568 OPS, two home runs, 13 RBI, 20 runs scored, and seven stolen bases in 101 games played in Sacramento last year. Schuemann was only slightly better in 2024 in his first MLB season, when he hit .220/.311/.308 with seven long balls, 34 RBI, 55 runs, and 14 steals in 133 games played. It remains to be seen if another MLB team will scoop him up off waivers for infield depth heading into spring training in 2026.
