The Athletics announced a major roster move on Thursday afternoon, revealing that the team is set to promote top prospect Jacob Wilson to the major league roster:
A’s are calling up No. 1 prospect (No. 50 MLB prospect) Jacob Wilson, per source.
The shortstop has dominated Triple-A by slashing .398/.444/.639 with 4 HR and 8 2B. Almost a year to the day he signed his pro contract, he will reach the big leagues after 72 Minor League games.— Martín Gallegos (@MartinJGallegos) July 18, 2024Well there you go! A’s fans have been clamoring for the team to promote the top-ranked Wilson for weeks.
