Jacob Wilson Dealing With Left-Shoulder Injury
Athletics shortstop Jacob Wilson's left shoulder was bothering him on Wednesday night after an awkward play in the fifth inning against the San Francisco Giants when he tried to avoid a tag at home plate, which led to him being lifted for a pinch-runner in the ninth inning, according to Martin Gallegos of MLB.com. It's unclear how severe Wilson's injury is, so he'll be considered day-to-day going into Thursday's series finale in San Francisco. Fantasy managers should expect Wilson to be held out of Thursday's lineup. Before leaving the 2-1 loss at Oracle Park on Wednesday night, Wilson went 1-for-3 at the plate with a strikeout. Max Muncy shifted from third base to shortstop to close out the game. The 24-year-old former sixth overall pick out of Grand Canyon University in 2023 is a contact-oriented hitter who is tough to strike out, but he lacks high-end power and speed to make him all that attractive at the 6 in fantasy. Wilson is slashing .277/.310/.386 with a .696 OPS, four homers, 26 RBI, 23 runs, and only two steals in his 202 at-bats in 2026.
