Athletics shortstop Jacob Wilson out for 2026 season
Athletics shortstop Jacob Wilson is likely to miss the rest of the 2026 season due to a left shoulder injury, with an IL move and a Sacramento evaluation looming and a possible surgery in the offseason. His absence, coming after a string of injuries and a historic error-free stretch, compounds a winless season for the A's and opens the door for in-house replacements like Alika Williams as they look toward 2027.
