He had six homers and 20 RBI in 101 career games previously, with all of the homers coming at Coors Field during his time with the Rockies in 2022.

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 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.

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..
