quote:

He’s walked at a gaudy 18.9 percent clip that’s more than double the current MLB average and punched out at a 22.8 percent rate that would sit below today’s MLB average.

That keen eye at the plate is one of Deichmann’s calling cards and one of the reasons he’s been a fairly well regarded prospect in the A’s system despite not yet tapping into his considerable raw power. Deichmann has drawn a free pass in 13.2 percent of his career minor league plate appearances since being selected out of Louisiana State University by the A’s in the second round of the 2017 draft.

MLB Network is carrying the game. Scheduled to start at 1:20 but they just showed a shot of the tarp on the field.

wishing him all the luck and good fortune.

Oakland never had that crowded an outfield and Deichmann could never make it up there. But he raked in the minors. Most A's fans, myself included, were a bit sad to see him go but he's a prospect worth parting with for what we got.

Per the stat line, Deichmann went 1 for 5 today. They play again tomorrow afternoon.
