The Oakland Athletics continue managing roster injuries as the 2026 season nears its conclusion. Shea Langeliers has begun hitting and running progressions, with the team expecting him to return as a designated hitter before the end of the year. Meanwhile, Luis Severino remains sidelined and is not expected to return, though he continues to throw bullpen sessions to ensure physical readiness for the upcoming offseason. Right-handed reliever Yunior Tur has shown improvement throughout September after a difficult start to his major league career. In his most recent appearances, Tur surrendered no runs across 3 ⅓ innings while utilizing a refined mix of pitches and better pace to the plate. The organization is now evaluating his potential role on the 40-man roster as they assess internal pitching options for the future.
