The Oakland Athletics announced Friday that former minor league player Miguel Marte died this week at the age of 30 from complications brought on by COVID-19.
Marte was a Dominican Republic native who joined the A's organization in 2008 and played through the 2012 season.
Marte—who played catcher, first base and outfield—primarily played in the Dominican Summer League, Arizona League and New York-Pennsylvania League, and never advanced beyond A-level baseball.
