Athletics' Stephen Vogt: Retiring after season
Stephen Vogt announced Thursday he will retire at the end of the 2022 season.The 37-year-old catcher, who has started seeing more time at first base and designated hitter, has logged over eight full years of MLB service time across 10 total seasons. Vogt has a career .239/.302/.406 slash line with 81 home runs and a 3.4 fWAR over 785 games. It is fitting that he is currently a member of the A's, as that's where he played for roughly half his career, including his peak seasons in 2014 and 2015. He was known for being an excellent clubhouse presence and being great at working with younger players, so perhaps he will have a future in player development.

Athletics' Stephen Vogt: Opportunities picking up
Stephen Vogt will serve as Oakland's designated hitter and No. 6 batter in Sunday's game against the White Sox.Vogt will be making his fourth start in five games and appears to have at least temporarily settled into a near-everyday role at the expense of Dermis Garcia, who is sitting for the third contest in a row. Since the All-Star break, Vogt owns a modest .644 OPS, so it wouldn't be surprising if his run of steady playing time proves to be short-lived.

Athletics' Stephen Vogt: Multi-hit effort in loss
Stephen Vogt went 2-for-3 with a RBI double in a loss to Atlanta on Wednesday.Vogt's first-inning double brought home Vimael Machin to open the scoring on the night. The 37-year-old has shown signs of life at the plate recently despite intermittent playing time, hitting .333 (9-for-27) with a trio of two-baggers, a home run and six RBI across his last 11 games. His left-handed swing and ability to fill in at catcher, first base and designated hitter all open up a solid amount of paths to starts, but the Oakland Athletics' interest in evaluating young players should continue to cap Vogt's game appearances the rest of the way.
