A's Put Tyler Soderstrom On 10-Day Injured List
5 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.
