Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Making return to starting nine
Wilson (finger) will start at shortstop and bat third in Sunday's game against the Rangers.
Wilson will make his return to the lineup following a one-game absence after he dealt with some swelling and stiffness in his left pinky finger after being hit on the hand by a pitch in Friday's 8-3 win. The young shortstop has had a couple minor injury scares thus far in August, as he also missed a start a couple weeks ago due to patellar tendinitis.

Wilson (hand) is not in the Athletics' starting lineup against the Rangers on Saturday.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Lifted after HBP
Wilson was removed from Friday's game against the Rangers after getting hit on the hand by a pitch, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.
Wilson initially remained in the game after taking a 95-mph sinker off his hand in the first inning, but he was lifted for a pinch hitter when his spot in the order came up again in the second. He was diagnosed with a contusion after the game, per Gallegos, which suggests Wilson avoided suffering a fracture, though Alika Williams could still be in line to start at shortstop if the A's opt to give Wilson a day off to recover.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Getting break Wednesday
Wilson is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Rays.
Wilson appears to be getting a routine day off after producing a weak .545 OPS so far through eight games in August. With Wilson sitting, Donovan Walton will cover shortstop, and Zack Gelof will handle second base as the Athletics look to avoid the series sweep.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Exiting starting lineup

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Returning to lineup Tuesday
Wilson (knee) will start at shortstop and bat second in Tuesday's game versus the Reds.
Wilson sat out Sunday's contest against the Tigers as he deals with patellar tendinitis in his knee, but he's ready to go after a team off day Monday. His knee situation is considered manageable, but Wilson could require an occasional off day in the final two months.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Receiving afternoon off
Wilson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.
Alika Williams will get the nod at shortstop while Wilson sits for what's presumably a planned rest day. Wilson had started 21 straight games since he returned from the injured list July 7, slashing .267/.300/.419 with three home runs, two stolen bases, eight RBI and 10 runs over that period.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Managing patellar tendinitis
Manager Mark Kotsay said that Wilson, who is out of the lineup Sunday against the Tigers, is dealing with patellar tendinitis in his knee, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.
Kotsay added that the injury is manageable, and he expects Wilson to be back at shortstop Tuesday in Cincinnati after Monday's team off day. It's unclear when the 24-year-old sustained the injury, but he's been struggling at the plate over the past nine games, batting just .162 (6-for-37) with two doubles, on steal, two RBI and three runs. Alika Williams will fill in at shortstop Sunday for the Athletics.

The Athletics were down to their final out when Wilson tied the game with a blast off Paul Sewald in the ninth inning. While the A's ultimately lost one inning later, Wilson was able to extend his hitting streak to nine games. He has gone 16-for-38 (.421) with three homers and six RBI in that span. For the season, the shortstop is batting .291 with a .748 OPS, seven homers, 32 RBI, 30 runs scored, 10 doubles, one triple and two stolen bases over 61 contests.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Sets tone with leadoff homer
Wilson went 3-for-6 with a home run, three total runs and two total RBI in a 15-1 rout of the Nationals on Saturday.
Wilson foreshadowed a big day by the A's offense when he launched a leadoff long ball off Zack Littell in the bottom of the first inning. The third-year infielder added two more hits, including a run-scoring single in the seventh. Wilson has carried a strong end to the first half with a standout start to the second -- he now has a six-game hitting streak during which he's batting .458 (11-for-24), though Saturday marked his first RBI of that stretch.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Activated from injured list
The Athletics reinstated Wilson (thumb) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.
The 24-year-old shortstop has been on the shelf nearly two weeks due to right thumb inflammation, and it's a bit of a surprise he's returning so quickly given that it was recently reported by MLB.com that he hadn't been swinging a bat since landing on the IL. Wilson is apparently good to go, however, and should reclaim the starting job at shortstop now that he's healthy. Through 50 games this season, he has a .277/.310/.386 slash line with four home runs, two steals, 26 RBI and 23 runs in 214 plate appearances.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Not hitting since landing on shelf
Wilson (thumb) hasn't resumed hitting since landing on the injured list June 29 and isn't expected to be available to play until after the All-Star break, MLB.com reports.
The Athletics likely won't have a good feel for a target date for Wilson's return until he's able to resume full baseball activities, but the 24-year-old appears to be shut down from activity for now while he waits for the swelling in his right thumb to subside. Since Wilson was placed on the IL, Alika Williams and Joshua Kuroda-Grauer have been sharing time at shortstop.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Shifts to injured list
The Athletics placed Wilson (shoulder) on the 10-day injured list Monday due to right thumb inflammation.
Wilson had been held out of the lineup for the previous four games due to an injury that the Athletics had been labeling as left shoulder soreness, but his placement on the IL is being attributed to a different injury. In any case, Wilson's stint on the IL is retroactive to Friday, so he could return to action for the final week before the All-Star break if he's able to make a swift recovery from the swollen thumb. The Athletics called up Joshua Kuroda-Grauer from Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move, and he and Alika Williams could share time at shortstop while Wilson is on the shelf.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Available off bench Saturday
Wilson (shoulder) isn't starting against the Angels on Saturday, but he's available off the bench and could be back in the starting lineup Sunday, Michael Huntley of the Orange County Register reports.
Wilson is beginning on the bench for the third straight game while nursing a left shoulder issue. However, manager Mark Kotsay indicated before the contest that the 24-year-old infielder won't need an IL stint and could come off the bench Saturday. Alika Williams is starting at shortstop for a third consecutive contest, but it sounds like that run could end with Wilson's potential return Sunday.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Missing fourth straight start
Wilson (shoulder) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.
A sore left shoulder will keep Wilson out of the starting nine for a fourth straight game, paving the way for Alika Williams to receive another nod at shortstop. The Athletics deemed Wilson available off the bench for Saturday's 5-2 loss, though the 24-year-old ultimately went unused. Wilson can be viewed as day-to-day heading into a three-game series with the Dodgers that begins Monday.
