Giants calling up pitching prospect Matt Wilkinson for MLB debut
San Francisco will select the 23-year-old lefty's contract from Triple-A Sacramento, necessitating a roster shuffle to open a 40-man spot.
The Giants plan to promote left-handed pitching prospect Matt Wilkinson for his major league debut, per ESPN's Jeff Passan. Wilkinson is not on the 40-man roster, so San Francisco must select his contract from Triple-A Sacramento and clear a spot on their full 40-man roster, likely via a 60-day IL move. The 23-year-old posted a combined 3.40 ERA across 90 innings at Double-A and Triple-A this season. Wilkinson came to the Giants in the May trade that sent catcher Patrick Bailey to Cleveland.
