EDGE Analysis

Vogt underwent sports hernia surgery in mid-October but should be ready as he returns to the Athletics on a major-league contract. The 37-year-old appeared in 78 games between Arizona and Atlanta last year and hit .195 with seven home runs, 25 RBI and 24 runs. He should serve as a backup at catcher behind Sean Murphy to begin the 2022 campaign.
