The Athletics signed Sauer to a minor-league contract Friday, Jason Burke of Roundtable.io reports.

Aug 7Rotowire

Sauer has spent all of 2026 so far in the KBO with the KT Wiz, where he had a 7-5 record over 18 starts with a 4.88 ERA across 101.1 innings. He last saw major-league action with the Dodgers in 2025, when he posted a 6.37 ERA and 1.45 WHIP over 29.2 innings. He will start his stint in the A's organization with Triple-A Las Vegas.

The KT Wiz of the Korea Baseball Organization signed Sauer to a one-year, $950,000 contract Thursday, Dan Kurtz of MyKBO.net reports.

Nov 7Rotowire

Sauer made one start and 23 relief appearances between the Royals and Dodgers over the past two seasons, posting a 6.85 ERA and 33:19 K:BB over 46 innings. The righty was used as a starting pitcher at Triple-A Oklahoma City in 2025, and the Wiz intend to use him in their rotation.

Sauer signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Thursday.

9/19/25Rotowire

Sauer was released by the Dodgers on Sept. 11, but it didn't take long for him to rejoin the organization. He's posted a 6.37 ERA and 1.45 WHIP across 29.2 innings in the majors.

The Dodgers released Sauer on Wednesday.

9/11/25Rotowire

Sauer cleared waivers after being designated for assignment, and the Dodgers have now elected to cut him loose. The 26-year-old has spent most of the season at Triple-A Oklahoma City, where he held a 5.86 ERA and 1.54 WHIP over 83 innings.

The Dodgers designated Sauer for assignment Saturday.

9/6/25Rotowire

Sauer has spent most of the season at Triple-A Oklahoma City, where he owns a 5.86 ERA and 1.54 WHIP through 83 innings. He'll now sacrifice his 40-man spot to make room for Chuckie Robinson's addition to the active roster, though the 26-year-old reliever is likely to clear waivers based on his poor performance.
