Recalled from Triple-A The Phillies recalled Wilson from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday.

Impact Wilson has posted an .895 OPS with 29 homers and 28 steals in 112 games this season at the Triple-A level, but it might be another brief major-league stint for the 28-year-old infielder while Trea Turner is away on paternity leave.

Sent down Sunday Wilson was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Sunday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

Impact Wilson spent two weeks with the major-league club but played in just four games and went 2-for-6 with a homer, three runs, an RBI and a stolen base. He should have the chance to see more consistent playing time with the minor-league club.

Fills up box score in debut Wilson went 1-for-1 with a solo homer, two additional runs scored and a steal in Wednesday's 7-0 victory over the Nationals.

Impact It was a debut to remember for the 28-year-old rookie after spending nearly seven years in the minors. Wilson launched a 429-foot solo homer off MacKenzie Gore in his first MLB at-bat before reaching twice via walks and adding a stolen base. Wilson posted some intriguing numbers with Triple-A Lehigh Valley this season, batting .260 with 25 home runs and 23 steals across 100 games. Still, he'll likely be limited to a platoon role with the Phillies while Brandon Marsh (knee) is sidelined.

Batting seventh in MLB debut Wilson is starting in left field and batting seventh in his major-league debut Wednesday versus the Nationals.

Impact Wilson was called up to the Phillies on Sunday after posting a shiny .884 OPS with 25 homers and 23 steals through 100 games this season for Triple-A Lehigh Valley. He'll probably continue to play sparingly, though, and can go on being ignored in most fantasy formats. Kyle Schwarber is getting a rare day off Wednesday.

Called up as Marsh replacement The Phillies selected Wilson's contract from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Sunday.

Impact The 28-year-old gets his first call-up to the big leagues in place of Brandon Marsh (knee), who was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. While Marsh is out, Johan Rojas should be locked into a full-time role in the outfield, and the lefty-hitting Jake Cave could end up settling into a strong-side platoon role in left field. The righty-hitting Wilson could make sense as a short-side platoon mate for Marsh, and Wilson also offers the ability to play all four infield spots as well as right field. Wilson was slashing .260/.361/.524 with 25 home runs and 23 stolen bases in 426 plate appearances for Lehigh Valley this season.
