Wilson (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Las Vegas on Saturday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Wilson has been sidelined since straining his left hamstring during his major-league debut July 19, but he's progressed to the point that he's ready to play in games again. The young shortstop shouldn't need an extended rehab assignment before rejoining the Athletics' active roster. Wilson was expected to receive regular run at shortstop prior to the injury, and incumbent starter Max Schuemann's .521 OPS thus far in August is unlikely to change those plans.
