Shea Langeliers

25-Year-Old DHDH
Oakland Athletics
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Langeliers was acquired by Oakland from Atlanta in March 2022 and made his MLB debut in August, and he had a .218/.261/.430 slash line with six home runs in 40 games. The 25-year-old split his playing time between catcher and designated hitter, but he won't be serving as the primary backstop as long as Sean Murphy remains with the A's. Langeliers showcased his power in his first taste of the big leagues, but he also had a problematic 34.6 percent strikeout rate. He'll need to improve in order to retain his spot in Oakland's lineup next season, but Langeliers should at least enter spring training with an inside track to a regular role after a solid showing last season.

Solid at plate in spring
DHOakland Athletics
March 12, 2023
Langeliers is hitting .261 (6-for-23) with a double, a home run, three RBI, a walk, a hit by pitch and five runs across nine Cactus League games.
ANALYSIS
Langeliers, the Athletics' projected Opening Day catcher after the trade of Sean Murphy to Atlanta in December, had a quick start to his spring but has gone 0-for-8 over his last three exhibitions. The 25-year-old posted just a .218 average and middling .691 OPS across his first 153 big-league plate appearances in 2022, and the hope is the exposure he got to major-league arms and his added reps this spring will help him significantly pare down the 34.6 percent strikeout rate he generated in that sample. Results are slightly encouraging on that front thus far in Cactus League play, as Langeliers has struck out seven times in 26 spring training PAs.
