A’s GM David Forst said he’s looking to add a third baseman prior to next season.
Max Schuemann, Brett Harris, Darell Hernaiz and C.J. Alexander are the team’s internal options at third, but Forst is looking to do better. Josh Rojas, Yoán Moncada, Luis Urías, Brandon Drury and Gio Urshela are some of the modestly priced options out there in free agency. The A’s had six different players start at least 10 games at third last season, with the since-released Abraham Toro leading the way.
Max Schuemann went 0-for-3 as Oakland’s third baseman Friday against the White Sox.
Schuemann is 5-for-37 this month, leaving him at .222/.313/.312 in 424 plate appearances overall. Still, the A’s seem to really like him and are continuing to play him regularly. He really projects as more of a utiltyman going forward.
Max Schuemann went 3-for-4 with a home run and two RBIs in a win over the Reds on Tuesday.
Even with the return of Jacob Wilson, Schuemann remained in the lineup, shifting over to third base. The 27-year-old has been struggling through a cold month of August, but if he continues to play regularly for Oakland then he can maintain deep league value, primarily in AL-only formats.
Max Schuemann homered and drove in four runs in a 13-3 rout over the Angels on Friday.
