Week's Premier Player: Oakland's Shaver
Monday, July 13th, 2026
His face might be sunbaked after all the years he's invested in this game, but 35-year-old Jacob Shaver of the Oakland Athletics is still playing a kid's game -- and getting paid for it. The veteran first baseman had a tremendous week and was named the Western Region Player of the Week.
Shaver drilled 10 hits in 20 at-bats and 1 home run on his way to posting a .500 average. He also knocked in 6 runs and scored 5 times.
This season Shaver is batting .323 with 43 hits, 7 home runs, 26 RBIs, .390 OBP and has scored 21 runs.
