Happy Wednesday, Athletics Nation!
Shea Langeliers came up huge for the A’s last night with three Lang Bangs that left Globe Life Field as the A’s won their third straight. As it happens, Jason Burke at SI.com posted a piece yesterday about how Shea has “upped his game,” citing peripherals that belied the A’s catcher’s hitherto lackluster line as well as improvements behind the dish. Bangeliers sure put an exclamation point on that bit of praise!
Ken Rosenthal at The Athletic cited an anonymous source who stated that the A’s plan to begin ramping up their payroll spending to $130 million or more ahead of the team’s move to Las Vegas.
