Why is Jacob Wilson out of the Athletics lineup on Saturday?
Wilson is not in the Athletics lineup again on Saturday against the Angels, per FantasyPros. He was removed early from Wednesday's game, and the shoulder issue has kept him out since that appearance.
Athletics correspondent Ari Koslow reported the update Saturday evening. Wilson remains day-to-day as the club continues monitoring the same shoulder that sidelined him earlier this season.
How long has Wilson been sidelined with his shoulder issue?
Saturday marks Wilson's third straight game on the sidelines. He exited Wednesday's contest early and has not started since that appearance against the Angels.
Fantasy managers and automated injury-tracking tools now face another blank lineup slot at shortstop until the A's clear him to return.
Which MLB teams made bullpen roster moves on Saturday?
The Cubs recalled Tyler Ferguson from Triple-A Iowa as a corresponding move after placing Hoby Milner on the 15-day injured list with appendicitis, FantasyPros reported. Ferguson is expected back in a middle-relief role with Chicago.
Separately, the Houston Astros are calling up pitching prospect Miguel Ullola, per Chandler Rome. After shifting to relief, he adds a fresh bullpen arm for Sunday's series finale against the Detroit Tigers.
When could Wilson return to the Athletics lineup?
Wilson's day-to-day label means the A's have not placed him on the injured list. That status suggests they still view the shoulder issue as manageable in the short term rather than requiring another long absence.
Until Wilson is cleared, managers should expect another fill-in at shortstop. Check official lineup cards before first pitch for the latest call on his availability this weekend.
