Weston Wilson Fantasy Stats

Philadelphia Phillies infielder/outfielder Weston Wilson was designated for assignment on Tuesday when the team officially re-signed J.T. Realmuto. Wilson was behind both Otto Kemp and Edmundo Sosa as utility bench pieces for the Phillies, and he'll now be available via trade or waiver wire claim to the rest of the teams in the majors. Over the last three years, he has played 103 games for the Phillies, slashing .242/.328/.428 in 245 career plate appearances. While he played mostly left field in the majors, he's also received time at second base, third base, first base, shortstop, and right field in the minors. His versatility and decent numbers could help him catch on as a utility piece with another team, or if no one claims him, the Phillies will likely give him the option of heading to the minors, where he could provide non-roster depth in 2026.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Weston Wilson (head) left the team's win on Wednesday at Coors Field over the Colorado Rockies in the fourth inning due to a migraine headache, according to MLB.com. Before leaving the game, Wilson went 0-for-1 with a walk before being replaced in left field by Brandon Marsh. Wilson has gone 4-for-17 (.235) with a homer and three RBI in his limited playing time in only 10 games for the Phillies in the short side of a platoon against left-handed pitching so far this year. The 30-year-old veteran's .762 OPS is above-average, but he's just not seeing enough playing to warrant attention in mixed fantasy leagues. Wilson is probably day-to-day after his migraine, but don't expect him to be in the starting lineup for Thursday's series finale at Coors Field against a right-handed pitcher.

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Weston Wilson went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 11-9 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. He also singled and struck out twice. The Clemson product blasted a 395-foot bomb in the bottom of the sixth inning to welcome Diamondbacks pitcher Juan Morillo to the game and cut the Phillies' deficit to two. Wilson hasn't played much in 2025 after recovering from an oblique injury he picked up during spring training. Still, he's hammering the ball when making contact, recording four hard-hit balls (three hits) in three appearances (nine at-bats). The North Carolina native may not garner consistent playing time, but he's shown the ability to be productive when called upon, bolstering a .284 average (25-for-88) in 41 games a season ago.

The Philadelphia Phillies announced on Tuesday that infielder/outfielder Weston Wilson's (oblique) minor-league rehab assignment has been moved to Triple-A Lehigh Valley. Wilson began the 2025 season on the injured list due to a strained left oblique that he suffered in spring training, but the 30-year-old veteran is progressing on his rehab assignment and should be an option for the big-league roster as outfield depth before the end of April. In four rehab games to this point with Single-A Clearwater, he has just one hit in 10 at-bats with a stolen base, four walks and three runs scored over 14 plate appearances. Wilson was scheduled to play nine innings at second base on Tuesday at Lehigh Valley before most likely seeing action in the outfield later this week. In 40 games with the Phils in 2024, Wilson hit .284/.347/.489 with an .836 OPS, three homers, 10 RBI and three steals in 98 plate appearances.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Weston Wilson (oblique) is scheduled to face live pitching this week in Clearwater, Florida. This could put him on track to start a minor-league rehab assignment next week and be activated off the injured list in mid-April. This would line up with the original timeline of an expected six-week absence after he sprained his oblique on February 21st. He will serve mostly as a bench bat in Philadelphia, just like he did in 2024 when he posted a productive .284/.347/.489 slash line in 41 games.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Weston Wilson (oblique) felt something in his oblique while taking swings in the batting cage at camp on Friday morning. The severity of Wilson's injury is unknown, but he'll likely go for testing to determine if he'll need to miss any time in spring training. If it's an oblique injury, the 30-year-old will most likely have to miss at least around a week of action, depending on the severity. If healthy, he should be on Philly's Opening Day roster as a reserve outfielder/first baseman after hitting an impressive .284/.347/.489 with an .836 OPS, three home runs, 10 RBI and 13 runs scored in 98 plate appearances over 40 games played. Wilson doesn't have a ton of MLB experience (48 games in two seasons), but when given the chance, he has hit the ball hard consistently. The problem is he doesn't have a clear path to regular playing time.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder/first baseman Weston Wilson will be competing with Kody Clemens and Buddy Kennedy at spring training this year for the second utility job behind infielder Edmundo Sosa, who is a lock for the Opening Day roster, according to MLB.com's Todd Zolecki. If the Phillies are looking for balance on their roster, Wilson might make the most sense just because of the fact that he hits right-handed, and the team already has a lot of lefty swingers on the roster. He can also play left field occasionally against tough left-handed pitchers. However, both Clemens and Kennedy are out of minor-league options and would have to be exposed to waivers if they are cut. The 30-year-old Wilson has only played in 48 big-league games the last two years, but he's hit .375 with four homers, 12 RBI and six steals and could be on the short side of a platoon for the Phils to open the 2025 campaign.

The Philadelphia Phillies reinstated infielder/outfielder Weston Wilson from the paternity list on Wednesday and optioned infielder Buddy Kennedy to Triple-A Lehigh Valley after Tuesday night's game in a corresponding move. It remains to be seen if Wilson will immediately jump back into the starting lineup for Wednesday's series finale against the Houston Astros at Citizens Bank Park. The 29-year-old ended up only missing two days for the birth of his child. Now that he's back, he'll mostly serve in a platoon role in the outfield for Philadelphia when the team faces a left-handed pitcher, limiting his fantasy appeal to NL-only leagues. He's a fine sleeper target in DFS against southpaws and has hit an impressive .353 overall (18-for-51) with only three home runs and seven RBI on the season. Wilson has gone 12-for-25 (.480) with two of his three homers against lefties in 2024.

The Philadelphia Phillies placed infielder/outfielder Weston Wilson on the paternity list on Monday and recalled right-hander Max Lazar from Triple-A Lehigh Valley in a corresponding move. The Phillies also optioned left-hander Kolby Allard to Lehigh Valley and recalled infielder Buddy Kennedy from Lehigh Valley. Wilson can miss up to three days and is likely to be unavailable for the entire series against the visiting Houston Astros this week in a rematch of last year's World Series. The 29-year-old has hit a strong .353/.370/.647 with a 1.017 OPS in his 51 at-bats for the Phillies this year, albeit with only three home runs, seven RBI and 10 runs scored on the short side of a platoon in the outfield. Austin Hays is starting in left field for the Phils on Monday and is hitting ninth against Astros right-hander Ronel Blanco.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Weston Wilson went 4-for-5 with a single, double, triple, and a round-tripper to lead the Phillies to a victory on Thursday evening. Wilson also scored three runs and tallied one RBI. The Clemson product has made just ten starts since rejoining the Phillies in mid-July. Through this stretch, the 29-year-old has performed quite well with a .342/.350/.684 line, three home runs, seven RBI and two doubles. Wilson could begin to earn aa starting role in left field as Brandon Marsh has gone just 7-for-40 through August. Wilson could be worth adding in deeper leagues for now, given his recent hot stretch, and may eventually be a popular target in all leagues if he can find his way into the starting nine on a consistent basis.
