Philadelphia Phillies
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Wilson made his big-league debut at age-28 last August, and he made the most of a pair of brief opportunities. In a tiny sample of eight games, he slashed .313/.500/.500 with a homer and three steals. He even earned a spot on the Phillies' Wild Card roster, though he didn't get into a game and was dropped for future rounds. Wilson's 31 homers and 32 steals for Triple-A Lehigh Valley last season suggest he's the type of player who could provide more fantasy value than expected if given an extended run, though he'll likely enter 2024 as an underdog for even a spot on the end of the bench. There's usually a reason why a player fails to debut before their late twenties, and in Wilson's case, that reason seems to be an elevated strikeout rate. His 27.5% mark at the Triple-A level over the last two campaigns is poor in its own right but gets worse when you factor in his age. Wilson may get found out if he's pressed into regular duty, but his speed could help out in deeper leagues if he earns a run of starts. Read Past Outlooks

August 28, 2024
The Phillies reinstated Wilson (personal) from the paternity list Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Wilson missed two games following the birth of his child. Now that he's back with the Phillies, Wilson will return to a bench role, though he could see occasional starts against left-handed pitching. Wilson owns a .480/.481/.880 slash line over 27 plate appearances versus southpaws this season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chance to make playoff roster?
OFPhiladelphia Phillies
October 1, 2023
Wilson could make Philadelphia's roster for the NL Wild Card Series and could start in left field against left-handed pitchers, reports Matt Gelb of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
The 29-year-old spent most of September at Triple-A Lehigh Valley with the roster situation of Rodolfo Castro essentially costing the club a roster spot, but Wilson was called up Saturday and now appears poised to make the initial playoff roster. The lefty-hitting Brandon Marsh has a .673 OPS against LHP this season while Jake Cave has a .633 OPS for the season and Cristian Pache has a .382 OPS in September, leaving the Phillies searching for options in left field down the stretch. Wilson isn't guaranteed to make the playoff roster given he has just 20 plate appearances in the big leagues, but even if excluded he's expected to stay with the team during October.
