View Draft Report

Wilson is a 6-foot-2, 210-pound switch-hitting outfielder who might be limited to left field but has a great feel for hitting. In his four years with Grand Canyon Wilson is a .332/.403/.516 hitter who doesn’t strike out often, and had a power surge during his 2024 season when he hit a career-best 17 home runs. He might be able to play first base as well which could give him a bit of defensive versatility, but he’s definitely a corner profile who will need to continue hitting for power at the next level. Wilson is the son of Steve Wilson, who pitched six seasons in the majors and is now a scout with the Yankees.
