Wilson’s Shoulder Ends Season | Oakland Athletics News

Oakland Athletics shortstop Jacob Wilson is out for the rest of the season after being placed on the injured list due to a recurring left shoulder issue that flared up during a swing. The injury, which began with a May dislocation and partially healed after a month off, worsened after he was hit by a pitch — prompting the team to shut him down to protect his long-term health. Despite the setback, Wilson had a strong year: 80 games, .266 batting average, 7 homers, 37 RBIs, and a Major League record 111 errorless games at shortstop. He’ll likely undergo offseason surgery, while teammates Darell Hernaiz, Alika Williams, and Donovan Walton will fill in at middle infield.
