A's Place Jacob Wilson on Injured List With Shoulder Subluxation
The Athletics announced on Tuesday that they placed infielder Jacob Wilson (shoulder) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to May 11) with a left-shoulder subluxation and selected the contract of outfield prospect Henry Bolte and infielder Michael Stefanic from Triple-A Las Vegas in corresponding moves. Wilson will go through strengthening exercises to stabilize his shoulder before he's cleared for activation, so fantasy managers should expect his stay on the IL to be more of a lengthy one. With Wilson sidelined, Darrell Hernaiz should see the majority of the playing time at the 6 in Sacramento, making him a worthy waiver-wire pickup in AL-only leagues. The contact-oriented Wilson continues to be an asset for a strong batting average in fantasy, as he was hitting .292 (47-for-161) with three homers, 19 RBI, 18 runs scored, and two stolen bases for the A's before injuring his shoulder while diving for a ball on Sunday against the Baltimore Orioles.
