"Avans made his MLB debut in May following a lengthy minor league career. He came on as a defensive replacement and singled in his only at-bat. Avans made seven appearances with the Athletics, recording a pair of hits in 15 at-bats. He was designated for assignment in early June and picked up by the Brewers. Avans played one game for the team, going 0-for-2 with a sacrifice fly. He was designated for assignment and outrighted to Triple-A shortly after."
"The Dodgers took Avans in the 33rd round in 2018. He'd spent his entire career with the organization prior to 2025. Avans moved up the system fairly quickly, reaching Double-A by 2019. He posted a 114 wRC+ with 24 steals across three levels that season. Avans was bumped up to Triple-A in 2021, where his results plateaued. He continued to steal bases at a solid clip, including 40 swipes in 2022,"
