Hello, Athletics Nation. Happy Tuesday to all!
Yesterday the rosters for the MLB Future’s Game were release and two A’s prospects were selected to the AL squad. Catcher/first baseman Tyler Soderstrom was among three catching prospects selected, while outfielder Lawrence Butler was among five outfielders to be selected to play. Also of note, this will be Soderstrom’s second selection to the team after he was selected in 2021 to the same game.
For those who don’t know, the Future’s Game is basically the minor league version of the MLB All-Star game. It’ll be held the Players from all levels of the minor leagues are eligible to be selected, with Butler and Soderstrom an excellent example.
