Marcus Wilson - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Cut loose by Boston The Red Sox released Wilson on Tuesday, Katie Morrison-O'Day of The Springfield Republican reports.

Impact Wilson was getting scant playing time at Triple-A Worcester and was batting just .153 with a 47.1 percent strikeout rate over 68 plate appearances for the affiliate this season, so Boston opted to cut ties with the 26-year-old outfielder. He'll look to catch on elsewhere on a minor-league deal.

Clears waivers The Mariners outrighted Wilson to Triple-A Tacoma on Monday.

Impact Wilson will remain in the Seattle organization after he went unclaimed by MLB's other 29 teams upon being exposed to waivers over the weekend. The 25-year-old got a brief cup of coffee in the majors earlier this season but has otherwise spent the entire campaign at Tacoma, with whom he's produced a .771 OPS over 282 plate appearances.

Designated for assignment Wilson was designated for assignment on Saturday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

Impact The Mariners needed to add a lefty reliever to the 40-man roster, and with Mitch Haniger's return right around the corner, Wilson was expendable. He could remain in the organization as outfield depth if he clears waivers.

Returns to minors The Mariners optioned Wilson to Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday.

Gets first big-league call-up The Mariners selected Wilson's contract from Triple-A Tacoma on Wednesday.

Impact Wilson will receive his first MLB call-up of the season in the wake of fellow outfielder Taylor Trammell straining his right hamstring in Tuesday's win over the Orioles and subsequently landing on the 10-day injured list. The 25-year-old slashed .209/.336/.469 with 12 home runs and eight stolen bases across 238 plate appearances with Tacoma. He has the ability to play all three outfield spots and is expected to serve as a bench piece for Seattle.

Outrighted off roster Wilson was outrighted to Triple-A Tacoma on Friday.

Impact Wilson was claimed off waivers from the Red Sox in early August but didn't see the field at the big-league level in either Boston or Seattle. He hit a respectable .240/.364/.421 at the Triple-A level with the two organizations, good for a 110 wRC+, but he struck out in 33.4 percent of his plate appearances.
