Oakland Athletics catcher Shea Langeliers is at risk of missing the remainder of the MLB season after sustaining a torn meniscus in his knee, according to ESPN.
The 28-year-old is currently evaluating his treatment options, including surgery, which would likely end his season. The potential loss of Langeliers represents a significant blow to the Athletics, who have been hampered by numerous injuries throughout the year.
Widely regarded as one of the premier catchers in the league, Langeliers' injury also complicates any potential trade scenarios involving the player. His absence further exacerbates the challenges faced by the injury-plagued Athletics roster.
