Player Outlook
Seth Brown launched a career-high 25 home runs in 2022 and also surprised with a double-digit stolen base total, but he predictably regressed across the board last season as the Athletics stumbled to a record of 50-112. The 31-year-old has a decent amount of power, enough to ensure him a prominent lineup spot on a perpetually-rebuilding A's team, but he enters the 2024 campaign with a rough .227 career batting average and .295 career on-base percentage in a sample size of nearly 1,400 major-league plate appearances. Brown is a drain in too many fantasy categories to warrant draft-day consideration in any standard mixed league, though he could maybe bounce back into 20-homer territory and offer AL-only appeal.

  • Athletics' Seth Brown: Playing time trending downward

    Brown is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros. The lefty-hitting Brown has now sat out four times in five games, with three of his absences from the lineup coming against right-handed pitchers. Brown appears to be moving into more of a part-time role while Brent Rooker and Tyler Nevin have taken on more playing time at the corner-outfield spots and while Abraham Toro has gained traction at designated hitter. Brown has produced a lowly .534 OPS on the season, including a .542 mark against right-handers.

  • Athletics' Seth Brown: Records second steal Monday

    Brown went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in a loss to the Astros on Monday. Brown rapped out a single for the third time in the last four games, while the steal was his second of the season. The 31-year-old's power drought is increasingly concerning, however, considering he has just six extra-base hits in 113 plate appearances after averaging one every 10.2 trips to the batter's box over the previous three seasons.

  • Athletics' Seth Brown: Not starting Sunday

    Brown is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners. Brown will sit for a second straight game despite Seattle sending right-hander Luis Castillo to the hill for Sunday's series finale.

  • Athletics' Seth Brown: Sits in early game of twin bill

    Brown is out of the lineup for the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Rangers. Even with right-hander Michael Lorenzen taking the hill for Texas, the lefty-hitting Brown finds himself on the bench for the first game of the day. Brown has occupied a strong-side platoon role in the outfield this season, but his hold on a regular gig could be loosening while he's produced a career-worst .548 OPS while striking out 32 times in 103 plate appearances (31.1 percent) so far on the campaign. Esteury Ruiz will fill in for Brown in left field.

  • Athletics' Seth Brown: Uncorks three-run shot Tuesday

    Brown went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in a loss to the Rangers on Tuesday. Brown's eighth-inning shot with JJ Bleday and Brent Rooker aboard got the Athletics out of a double-digit deficit, but it would also be the final runs of the day for Oakland. The 31-year-old snapped a six-game home-run drought with the timely blast, as well as the 0-for-11 slump he'd been mired in during that stretch. Brown is still limping along with a .179/.243/.305 slash line, and a strikeout rate that's ballooned to 31.1 percent this season is playing a prominent role in the struggles.

  • Athletics' Seth Brown: Slugs second homer in win

    Brown went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a win over the Orioles on Sunday. Brown opened the scoring on an eventful afternoon for both teams' bats with a 409-foot shot to center in the second inning. The round tripper snapped a 13-game homerless drought for Brown, who has left the yard just twice over 86 plate appearances after averaging a homer once every 21 trips to the batter's box over the previous three seasons.

  • Athletics' Seth Brown: Productive in pinch-hit capacity

    Brown entered Saturday's loss to the Nationals as a pinch hitter in the bottom of the eighth inning and went 1-for-1 with a stolen base. Brown originally had the night off with lefty MacKenzie Gore on the hill for the Nationals to open the game, but the slugger was called on in the eighth to try to ignite a rally from a one-run deficit. Brown promptly singled and then stole second on a called third strike to Shea Langeliers for the former's first swipe of the campaign. The 31-year-old is scuffling at the plate overall while generating a .205 average and .581 OPS through his first 49 plate appearances, but he's now an encouraging 4-for-8 with a double and a solo home run over his last three games.

  • Athletics' Seth Brown: First multi-hit effort of season

    Brown went 2-for-5 with an RBI single in a win over the Tigers on Sunday. Brown put the final run of the afternoon on the board for the Athletics with his ninth-inning single, which plated Zack Gelof. The lefty swinging slugger nearly matched his season-long hit total coming in with his first multi-hit effort of the campaign, as Brown had been mired in a 3-for-27 slump to start 2024 prior to Sunday's success. The 31-year-old, who laced 122 extra-base hits over the last three seasons, has yet to produce anything more impactful than a single over his first 10 games.

  • Athletics' Seth Brown: Pair of hits in return

    Brown (back) started in right field in a Cactus League loss to the Brewers on Saturday and went 2-for-3 with a run. Brown's near two-week absence due to lower-back tightness did nothing to cool off his bat. The power-hitting outfielder's multi-hit effort was his third straight in Cactus League play and pushed his spring average to an impressive .444 across 19 plate appearances.
