2024 Fantasy Outlook
Selected by the Athletics with the 26th overall pick in the 2020 MLB Draft out of a high school in California, Soderstrom climbed through the minor leagues far more quickly than most young catchers and made his major-league debut just after the 2023 All-Star break at age 21. How much he'll actually catch over the course of his big-league career is an unsettled debate, but he should retain eligibility at fantasy baseball's shallowest position for at least a little while longer as he also works in at first base and DH. Oakland loves his bat, and it's easy to see why. Across his 268 total games on the farm, the now 22-year-old registered an .856 OPS with 62 home runs and 216 RBI, and he absolutely feasted on right-handed pitching as a fast-rising lefty-swinging slugger.

Testing reveals further details
Soderstrom suffered a stress reaction but not a fracture of his wrist according to recent tests, and he is currently donning a splint, MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Manager Mark Kotsay expressed relief at the test results, which he described as the best-case scenario for the promising rookie. Soderstrom is slated to wear the splint for up to 10 days before beginning a regimen of strengthening exercises as the next step in his recovery. Given the nature of the injury, he appears likely to require more than a minimum-length stay on the injured list.

Stat Review
How does Tyler Soderstrom compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
Once Sean Murphy gets traded, Soderstrom becomes the most important position player in Oakland's organization. A prep catcher when he was drafted with the 26th overall pick in 2020, Soderstrom got more starts at first base (58) than catcher (50) last year, and most evaluators expect him to be Oakland's first baseman of the future. It's possible he could have catcher eligibility when he debuts, depending on the host site, but dynasty-league managers should count him as a first baseman when doing roster inventory. He got off to a slow start in 2022, but considering he was playing in the cold weather of the Midwest League, that should be forgiven. From May 24 on, Soderstrom (a California native) slashed .293/.346/.534 with 22 home runs, a 26.1 K% and a 7.0 BB% across High-A, Double-A and Triple-A. His 31.8 Hard% on the year was a very strong mark and Soderstrom easily projects for plus game power, although his future home park and teammates could suppress his counting stats. The 21-year-old lefty hitter should return to Triple-A, and it's possible the A's will bring him up earlier than expected due to the lack of talent on the big-league roster.

Worked at Driveline to up bat speed
Soderstrom spent 5-6 days per week at Driveline Baseball this offseason with the goal of increasing his bat speed, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Soderstrom said he's seen "more consistent exit velos and bat speed" as a result of the drills Driveline tailored specifically for him. The top prospect has only worked as a catcher so far this spring and any action he sees at first base will be "very limited," Athletics manager Mark Kotsay said. Soderstrom began 2022 at High-A Lansing but finished it at Triple-A Las Vegas, compiling an .825 OPS with 29 homers and 105 RBI across three stops. He's slated to return to Las Vegas to begin 2023, but his MLB debut this season is very possible, whether it's at catcher, first base or a combination of the two positions.
