Players to Watch: Athletics vs. Minnesota Twins
Athletics
Shea Langeliers — C. Langeliers is hitting .263 with 23 home runs and 51 RBIs, the kind of power production that has made him the focal point of the Athletics’ lineup this season. His .333 on-base percentage and .497 slugging mark point to a hitter capable of doing damage even when he isn’t squaring one up completely.
Playing left field for the Athletics, Tyler Soderstrom has provided a second reliable power bat with 16 home runs and 48 RBIs. He’s hitting .248 with a .474 slugging percentage, numbers that have kept him in the middle of the order all season.
A .291 average has been the calling card for Jacob Wilson at shortstop this season. His .322 on-base percentage and .422 slugging mark round out a profile built more on contact than raw power.

Byron Buxton — CF. Buxton is hitting .274 with 25 home runs and 45 RBIs, numbers that make him the engine of Minnesota’s outfield production. His .568 slugging percentage stands out even in a lineup that spreads power throughout the order.
Serving as Minnesota’s primary designated hitter, Josh Bell has driven in 62 runs to go with 13 home runs and a .247 average. His .304 on-base percentage adds patience to a middle-of-the-order role built around run production.
