The Athletics recently announced a franchise-record seven-year, $86MM extension for left fielder Tyler Soderstrom, following past investments in players like DH Brent Rooker and outfielder Lawrence Butler. General manager David Forst revealed ongoing discussions for extensions with other young players, notably catcher Shea Langeliers and prospects Nick Kurtz and Jacob Wilson. While Langeliers may seek a deal surpassing Sean Murphy‘s contract, Kurtz’s extension would likely require a franchise record. Potential cheaper candidates for extensions include outfielder Denzel Clarke and starter Luis Morales, though they remain speculative.
