Ryan Lasko, the No. 18 prospect for the Athletics, is improving after fracturing his C6-C7 vertebrae.
Lasko suffered the injury during a horrific collision in a game earlier this month. While playing center field for Double-A Midland, Lasko and right fielder Devin Taylor collided while going for a ball in the gap.
Lasko, 24, was down for 10 minutes before leaving the field on a cart and going to Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Plano, where he underwent surgery.

Lasko, though, said earlier this week that he is "feeling much better" after originally not having feeling in his legs.
"I have sensation from my feet up to my knees, along with a lot of involuntary leg movements. I also have been getting some sensation in the side of my thighs, hamstrings, and back," Lasko wrote on social media.
Lasko said he has "about 75% usage of my left hand and about 50% in my right."

"I'm very happy with my progress and once again, so thankful for all the love and support. It has continued to help me get up every day and work my hardest," he added.
Lasko is one of the Athletics’ top prospects, entering the season as the franchise’s No. 18 prospect, per MLB Pipeline. He was taken by the Athletics in the 2023 MLB Draft in the second round.
While he opened the season in Double-A, Lasko made it to Triple-A Las Vegas last season.
This year, Lasko is slashing .209/.275/.360 with six home runs, five triples and 34 RBI.
