APRIL 6, 2025 • Associated Press

Hitting streak up to eight Wilson went 2-for-5 with a solo home run while collecting two more RBI and scoring another run in Friday's 6-3 win over Colorado.

Impact Wilson's solo shot in the fourth inning officially brought his hitting streak to eight games, and a two-RBI single in the 11th gave him his second consecutive multi-hit effort while also securing the win for the A's. The 23-year-old is now slashing .379/.379/.621 on the year and currently boasts one of the hottest bats in baseball.

Extends hitting streak to seven Wilson went 3-for-4 with a double in Wednesday's 10-2 loss to the Cubs.

Impact Wilson was responsible for three of the Athletics' five hits Wednesday, including a double in the ninth inning. Wilson has logged a hit in each of the first seven games of the 2025 season and is slashing .375/.375/.542 with three runs scored, one home run and two RBI.

Moves up to six spot Wilson is starting at shortstop and batting sixth in Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

Impact Wilson has batted ninth in five of seven games for the Athletics this season, but this is now the second time he's been up in the six spot. The 23-year-old is 6-for-20 with one home run and two RBI in his first six contests this season and would receive a minor boost in fantasy if he starts hitting higher in the batting order regularly.

Slugs first career homer Wilson went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and an additional RBI against the Cubs in a loss Monday.

Impact Wilson put the Athletics on the board in the third inning with a solo shot to left field. He added another RBI on a groundout in the fourth in what was then a 5-3 game, but Chicago went on to score the final 13 runs to turn the contest into a rout. Wilson isn't known for his power, and Monday's long ball was the first of his major-league career after he failed to go deep over 103 plate appearances as a rookie last season.

Gets hit in season opener Wilson went 1-for-3 in Thursday's loss to the Mariners. He started at shortstop and hit No. 9 in the batting order.

Impact Wilson won the starting shortstop this spring and should be in the lineup nearly every day. The No. 6 overall pick in 2023 has a strong eye at the plate (9.7 K% and 8.0 BB%) that should result in a good batting average despite meager power.

Looks set for starting job Wilson is hitting just .194 (6-for-31) with two home runs in 10 game this spring, but still appears set as the A's starting shortstop, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Impact The No. 6 overall pick in 2023, Wilson has only needed around 25 games at each of the three highest levels of the minors en route to his big-league debut just after the All-Star break. He quickly suffered a hamstring strain that kept him out until late-August and played just 28 games. Still, he showed enough in the majors that the A's are set to give him everyday duty at shortstop. He has a strong eye at the plate (9.7% K% and 8.0% BB%) that should result in a good batting average despite meager power.

Contributes game-winning hit Wilson went 1-for-3 with an RBI walk-off single and a walk in a win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

Impact The rookie drove home Zack Gelof with one out in the ninth inning to snap a 4-4 tie and send the Athletics home winners in their penultimate game at Oakland Coliseum. Wilson now has singles in three straight games, but he's shown very little pop since his late-August return from a long IL stint with just four extra-base hits across 86 plate appearances.

Productive in leadoff role Wilson went 2-for-4 with a triple, a walk and a run in a loss to the Cubs on Monday.

Impact Wilson worked out of the leadoff spot for only the second time in his nascent MLB career and made good use of the opportunity. He led the game off with his second career triple, but it was his third-inning walk that led to his run, as Brent Rooker drove the rookie home with his two-run blast. Wilson now has a trio of two-hit efforts in the last nine games, and it remains to be seen if his move up in the order was just an outlier or is indicative of a longer-term slotting for what remains of the regular season.

Resting up Sunday Wilson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Impact Wilson will get a breather for the series finale after he went 5-for-24 with a double, three runs and no RBI while starting in each of the past six games. Nick Allen will replace Wilson as the Athletics' starting shortstop.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Multi-hit effort in loss Wilson went 2-for-4 with a double and a run in a loss to the Astros on Thursday.

Impact The rookie contributed only his second multi-hit effort since returning from the injured list Aug. 27 and extended his hitting streak to six games in the process. Wilson has been making constant contact during that stretch, mustering a .333 average with a tiny 7.7 percent strikeout rate across 26 plate appearances.

Idle Saturday Wilson isn't in the Athletics' lineup Saturday against the Tigers.

Impact Wilson went 2-for-4 with an RBI during Friday's series opener, and he'll now grab a seat on the bench while Nick Allen starts at shortstop, batting eighth.

SEPTEMBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Singles, scores in loss Wilson went 1-for-3 with a walk and a run in a loss to the Mariners on Thursday.

Impact The rookie is maintaining an everyday role now that he's healthy, but Wilson has gone just 4-for-25 since returning from his IL stint due to a hamstring injury back on Aug. 27. However, given his elite body of work as a hitter in the minors -- Wilson posted averages of between .318 and .571 at each stop during his meteoric year-plus rise through the organization -- it figures to be just a matter of time before he starts showing signs of figuring out big-league arms as he continues to see them during the stretch run.
