Expert Note
View More NotesShea Langeliers took a significant step forward in 2025, posting career-best marks across the board with a .277/.325/.536 slash, 31 homers, and sharp gains in contact quality. His strikeout rate dropped to 19.7% (down from 27.2% in 2024) while maintaining strong power indicators, including a .260 ISO and near-elite hard-hit rate for the position. The improved approach and BABIP rebound (.290) support much of the batting average growth, not just a fluky power spike. With 2026 projections reinforcing him as a 25-30 HR catcher with playable ratios, Langeliers has firmly elevated himself into the upper tier at a thin fantasy position.

Shea Langeliers and the Athletics have avoided arbitration and the slugging catcher will make $5.25 million in 2026.
Fantasy Impact
Langeliers, who just turned 28, has played parts of four seasons with the Athletics. The right-handed hitting catcher enjoyed a breakout season last year as he posted career-best in batting average (.277), home runs (31), hits (133), doubles (32), slugging (.536), and OPS (.861). The former first-round pick by the Braves in 2019 should be one of the first catchers selected in 2026 fantasy drafts.
