Dodgers' Austin Beck: Makes season debut
Beck (knee) went 2-for-5 with with a home run, three RBI and an additional run in his 2024 debut Sunday for Double-A Tulsa in a 12-9 win over Northwest Arkansas.
Beck missed the entire 2023 season while recovering from a torn ACL, but after signing a minor-league deal with the Dodgers, he looks like he's good to go for the start of the 2024 campaign. A first-round pick of the Athletics in the 2017 First-Year Player Draft, Beck has yet to make his MLB debut and profiles as organizational outfield depth for the Dodgers at this stage of his career.

Dodgers' Austin Beck: Gets MiLB deal from Dodgers
Beck (knee) signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Saturday, J.P. Hoornstra of DodgersNation.com reports.
Beck missed all of last season after tearing his ACL in March, but he is expected to be ready for the start of spring training. The 25-year-old outfielder appeared in rookie ball, High-A and Double-A in 2022, slashing .250/.304/.388 with 30 RBI across the three levels. Given Beck's extended absence from baseball, it's possible the Dodgers send him to one of their lower-level affiliates to begin the season with the goal of getting him back to Triple-A.

Athletics' Austin Beck: Done for season with ACL tear
Athletics director of player development Ed Sprague said Wednesday that Beck will miss the entire 2023 season after suffering an ACL tear earlier in camp, Melissa Lockard of The Athletic reports.
A 2017 first-round draft pick, Beck has endured a number of health-related setbacks through his first six seasons in the professional ranks, and the torn ACL represents yet another roadblock in his development. The 24-year-old outfielder slashed .254/.304/.388 with nine home runs and three stolen bases across 68 games in 2022 between three different minor-league affiliates, topping out at Double-A Midland.

Athletics' Austin Beck: Hits homer in first game back
Beck (undisclosed) was activated from the 7-day injured list at High-A Stockton and went 1-for-3 with a home run and a strikeout Saturday.
He is now slashing .263/.309/.460 with seven home runs and two steals in 54 games. The concerning aspect of Beck's campaign is his 80:14 K:BB in 213 at-bats, but he has only struck out seven times over his last 10 games.

Athletics' Austin Beck: Running hot in Stockton
Beck is hitting .349 (15-for-43) with one home run, 12 RBI, two walks and 10 runs over his last 10 games with High-A Stockton, and he's slashing .263/.310/.450 overall across 52 games this season.
The promising center fielder has displayed a well-rounded offensive profile with the Ports, as he's laced 15 doubles, three triples and six homers overall, helping lead to a solid 36 RBI. Beck's power numbers this season, while relatively modest, are still notable, considering he slugged just four round trippers across a combined 708 plate appearances in rookie-level and Low-A ball over his first two professional seasons.

Athletics' Austin Beck: Battling quadriceps soreness
Beck has been battling a sore right quadriceps, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Beck hasn't played since June 1 but is considered day-to-day and has not been placed on the injured list. He hit .258/.309/.461 with a 37.6 percent strikeout rate in 45 games for High-A Stockton prior to the injury.

Athletics' Austin Beck: Solid start at High-A level
Beck is slashing .295/.340/.545 across his first 47 plate appearances at High-A Stockton.
The first two components of the line are almost identical to the .296 average and .335 on-base percentage Beck generated over 534 plate appearances at Low-A Belmont in 2018. However, his slugging percentage is enjoying an early spike thanks to the eight extra-base hits (six doubles, one triple, one home run) Beck has accumulated in his first 11 games. His prior body of work over his first two pro stops suggests that the pace is somewhat of an outlier.

Athletics' Austin Beck: Not raking in steals at Low-A
Beck is slashing .294/.337/.372 with a home run and five stolen bases across 350 plate appearances for Low-A Beloit this season.
Though Beck was held in high esteem for his plus speed when the Athletics selected him out of high school in the first round of the 2017 first-year player draft, the 19-year-old has yet to churn out gaudy stolen-base totals. Through 524 career plate appearances, Beck has stolen only 12 bags in 17 attempts. The outfielder has at least shown better plate skills in 2018 after struggling to make contact at the rookie-ball level, but he'll need to make more of an impact with his baserunning to raise his long-term outlook as a fantasy asset.
