Jacob Wilson rises in Baseball America’s top 100 update

It was an unquestionably sparkling start for Jacob Wilson to his 2024 season, and he opened eyes for many evaluators around baseball. Wilson dominated at Double-A Midland, hitting .455 with 16 extra base hits in 22 games, earning himself a quick pull up to Triple-A. Wilson had some success in Vegas going 9-24 at the plate, but unfortunately hit the injured list on May 18th and has yet to come back to the team. Still, his work this season has improved his evaluation in the eyes of most, and Baseball America bumped him up to 44th overall in their June Top 100 update.
