Athletics recalled C Brian Serven from Triple-A Las Vegas.

With Shea Langeliers (knee) likely to miss the remainder of the season, Serven will have an opportunity to stick around this time as the backup to Jonah Heim. The 31-year-old backstop has gone 1-for-4 in his limited action with the A’s this season.

Athletics optioned C Brian Serven to Triple-A Las Vegas.

Serven has served two brief stints with the A’s this month, going 1-for-4 in two appearances. He’ll head back to Triple-A and continue to serve as insurance in case Shea Langeliers or Jonah Heim gets hurt.

Athletics recalled C Brian Serven from Triple-A Las Vegas.

Athletics optioned C Brian Serven to Triple-A Las Vegas.

Serven gets the boot with Jacob Wilson back in action for the A’s after missing a week-plus with a thumb injury. Serven’s demotion seems to imply that Shea Langeliers — who also is dealing with a thumb ailment — should be good to go.

Shea Langeliers (thumb) remains shelved for Sunday’s contest against the Marlins.

Langeliers was removed from Friday night’s game due to a left thumb contusion and has now missed two consecutive starts. He’s still considered day-to-day. Brian Serven will start behind the dish for the Athletics and bat ninth against Eury Perez and the Marlins on Sunday afternoon in West Sacramento.

Athletics selected the contract of C Brian Serven from Triple-A Las Vegas.

Serven’s promotion comes a day after Shea Langeliers left Friday’s game with a thumb injury. Coincidence? Probably not. Serven will be a backup backstop to Jonah Heim while he’s with the club. How long that takes place will depend on Langeliers’ availability.

Athletics signed C Brian Serven to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

Serven last appeared in the majors with the Blue Jays in 2024. He spent 2025 with the Detroit Tigers, slashing .232/.335/.313 with three home runs in 62 games at Triple-A Toledo. He’s simply organizational catching depth.

Tigers reassigned OF Akil Baddoo, INF/OF Bligh Madris, RHP Jordan Balazovic, RHP Brendan White, LHP Dietrich Enns, LHP Matt Gage, INF Andrew Navigato and C Brian Serven to minor league camp.

Baddoo likely would’ve made Detroit’s season-opening roster as their starting right fielder, in the wake of Parker Meadow’s nerve-related arm injury, had he not undergone surgery last month to repair a hamate fracture in his right hand. No other real surprises here among the latest round of cuts from Tigers camp, but several of the pitchers have a shot to make it to the Motor City in middle relief roles..

Tigers signed C Brian Serven to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

Serven provides the Tigers with some extra organizational catching depth behind Jake Rogers and Dillon Dingler until top prospects Thayron Liranzo and Josue Briceño are ready to reach the big leagues. The 29-year-old backstop got into 28 contests last year for the Blue Jays.

Blue Jays sent C Brian Serven outright to Triple-A Buffalo.

Serven was designated for assignment earlier this week. He has the option to refuse the assignment, but either way he’ll become a free agent at the end of the season. Serven is a weak hitter even for a backup catcher. He hit .159 with no home runs and three RBI in 63 at-bats with Toronto this year.
