Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Contributes game-winning hit
Wilson went 1-for-3 with a walk-off RBI single and a walk in a win over the Rangers on Tuesday.
The rookie drove home Zack Gelof with one out in the ninth inning to snap a 4-4 tie and send the Athletics home winners in their penultimate night game at Oakland Coliseum. Wilson now has singles in three straight games, but he's shown very little pop since his late-August return from a long IL stint with just four extra-base hits across 86 plate appearances.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Productive in leadoff role
Wilson went 2-for-4 with a triple, a walk and a run in a loss to the Cubs on Monday.
Wilson worked out of the leadoff spot for only the second time in his nascent MLB career and made good use of the opportunity. He led the game off with his second career triple, but it was his third-inning walk that led to his run, as Brent Rooker drove the rookie home with his two-run blast. Wilson now has a trio of two-hit efforts in the last nine games, and it remains to be seen if his move up in the order was just an outlier or indicative of where he'll primarily slot in for what remains of the regular season.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Singles, scores in loss
Wilson went 1-for-3 with a walk and a run in a loss to the Mariners on Thursday.
The rookie is maintaining an everyday role now that he's healthy, but Wilson has gone just 4-for-25 since returning from the IL on Aug. 27. However, given his elite body of work in the minors -- Wilson hit .433 (90-for-208) this year over three minor-league levels -- it figures to be just a matter of time before he figures out big-league arms.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Singles, scores in return
Wilson, reinstated from the injured list earlier in the day, went 1-for-4 with a run in a win over the Reds on Tuesday.
The rookie was able to carry over a bit of the offensive momentum he'd generated during his rehab assignment at Triple-A Las Vegas, hitting safely for the second time in as many big-league games. Now seemingly back to full health after recovering from the hamstring injury that felled him after a single plate appearance during his MLB debut back on July 19, Wilson should be in line for some steady run at shortstop down the stretch for the non-contending Athletics.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Reinstated from injured list
The Athletics activated Wilson (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list ahead of Tuesday's game against the Reds.
The 22-year-old suffered the hamstring strain during his major-league debut July 19, but he's ready to rejoin Oakland after gong 9-for-23 during a seven-game rehab assignment with Triple-A Las Vegas. Wilson is the organization's top prospect and should take over as the primary shortstop for the stretch run. He's split his time in the minors this season between Las Vegas and Double-A Midland, and he's hit .423 with seven homers, two steals, 36 RBI and 44 runs in 48 games between the two affiliates.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: On verge of activation
Wilson (hamstring), who played a full game at shortstop in Triple-A Las Vegas' loss to Reno on Sunday and went 1-for-4 with a two-run double, is feeling great on his rehab assignment and could be activated from the IL this week, MLB.com reports.
The news was relayed via manager Mark Kotsay before Wilson played a full game Sunday, giving all the more weight to the statement. The rookie had notably logged seven innings on defense Saturday as well, seemingly corroborating his hamstring is back to full health. Wilson has swung a hot bat throughout his time with the Aviators, posting a .391 average (9-for-23) with three doubles, five RBI, two walks and four runs.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Seven innings in rehab game
Wilson (hamstring) started at shortstop and played seven innings in Triple-A Las Vegas' win over Reno on Saturday, going 2-for-4 with a run.
Wilson played seven innings in the field for a second consecutive day, another indication the rookie infielder is close to or at full health. He seems to have regained timing at the plate as well, as he's now put together three straight two-hit games for Las Vegas and has four such tallies overall in six rehab games. Wilson could be activated from the 10-day injured list ahead of the Athletics' series opener Tuesday in Cincinnati.

Wilson (hamstring) played seven innings at shortstop and a full game at DH in Triple-A Las Vegas' games against Reno on Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively, going a combined 2-for-6 with an RBI, two walks and a run.
All of Wilson's offensive contributions in that span came in the latter contest, and he's now hitting .364 (4-for-11) over his four-game rehab stint. Wilson is slated to play again for the Aviators on Thursday and could potentially put in a full nine innings on defense for the first time during his time with Las Vegas.

The Athletics plan to have him alternate starts at designated hitter and shortstop over his next three appearances.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Plays defense in second rehab game
Wilson (hamstring) started at shortstop and played five innings in Triple-A Las Vegas' loss to Oklahoma City on Sunday, going 0-for-2 with a hit-by-pitch.
The main takeaway from Wilson's second rehab game was his ability to suit up on consecutive days and play defense for the first time. The rookie infielder may get at least one game off with the Aviators before potentially upping his defensive workload in his next appearance with the affiliate.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Starting rehab assignment Saturday
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.

Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Approaching rehab assignment
Wilson (hamstring) will travel to Triple-A Las Vegas this week to continue his rehab, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.
Assuming Wilson doesn't run into any setbacks, the expectation is that he could begin playing in rehab games with the Aviators by Saturday. The A's haven't yet decided how long they'll keep the 22-year-old in the minors, but beginning an assignment Saturday would give him plenty of time to potentially return to action with Oakland before the end of the month.

Wilson has been progressing well in his recovery from a strained left hamstring and participated in batting practice for the first time since being placed on the IL on July 21. Still, the Athletics are taking it slow with the 22-year-old, who isn't expected back for multiple weeks.

Wilson (hamstring) began a light baseball progression earlier in the week that includes hitting off a tee, MLB.com reports.
The promising rookie is also playing catch up to 90 feet and doing some light jogging.
