The Rays traded Wisely to Atlanta on Tuesday in exchange for cash.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old infielder was DFA'd by Tampa Bay on Friday after the team acquired Victor Mesa in a trade with Miami. Wisely will now recapture a 40-man spot upon moving to Atlanta, but he is out of minor-league options and will have to break spring training with the big-league club to hold onto his roster spot. Joe Jimenez (knee) was placed on the 60-day IL in a corresponding move.

The Rays designated Wisely for assignment on Friday, the team announced.

EDGE Analysis

Tampa Bay acquired Victor Mesa from the Marlins via trade. In order to make room on the 40-man roster, Wisely was designated for assignment. The 26-year-old spent time with San Francisco and Atlanta last season, appearing in 26 MLB games and posting a .594 OPS. He slashed .253/.332/.387 across 342 plate appearances with the Giants' Triple-A affiliate in 2025.

The Rays acquired Wisely and Ken Waldichuk from Atlanta on Monday in exchange for a player to be named later or cash considerations.

EDGE Analysis

Wisely came up through the minors with the Rays before being traded to the Giants in November 2022. The 26-year-old is a career .214/.265/.319 hitter over parts of three major-league seasons, but he's slashed .275/.372/.433 at the Triple-A level and can play all over the diamond. Wisely is out of minor-league options and could compete for the Rays' opening at second base, though a reserve role is likelier.

Atlanta designated Wisely for assignment Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The move frees a 40-man roster spot for the addition of George Soriano, who was claimed off waivers. Wisely was a waiver claim himself in September and holds a career .214/.265/.319 slash line over parts of three major-league seasons. The 26-year-old can play all over the diamond, but he's out of minor-league options, which could hurt his chances of being claimed again.

Wisely will start at second base and bat eighth in Tuesday's game against the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Wisely was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett earlier in the day, and he will receive the first opportunity to fill in at second base for the injured Ozzie Albies (hand). The 26-year-old Wisely sports a career .217/.263/.324 slash line over parts of three big-league seasons.

Atlanta recalled Wisely from Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Wisely was claimed off waivers from the Giants last week. He's absorbing the roster spot vacated by Ozzie Albies (hand) and could see some starts at second base in Albies' place down the stretch. Wisely is a career .217/.263/.324 hitter over parts of three big-league seasons.

Atlanta claimed Wisely off waivers from San Francisco on Thursday and optioned him to Triple-A Gwinnett.

EDGE Analysis

Wisely lost his place on the Giants' 40-man roster following the promotion of Bryce Eldridge, but the former will reclaim a roster spot upon moving to Atlanta. He'll most likely remain in Triple-A for the remainder of the season after slashing .253/.332/.387 at Sacramento.

The Giants designated Wisely for assignment Monday.

EDGE Analysis

The move makes room on the Giants' 40-man roster for Bryce Eldridge, who will make his major-league debut against the Diamondbacks on Monday. Wisely has spent most of the season in Triple-A, where he is slashing .253/.332/.387 with 12 steals, 17 doubles, seven home runs and 42 RBI in 342 plate appearances.

The Giants optioned Wisely to Triple-A Sacramento on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old will be pushed out of the Giants' infield room following the return of Christian Koss (hamstring) from the injured list. Wisely owns a .208/.269/.354 slash line through 54 plate appearances in the big leagues this season but figures to be on the short list to return to San Francisco if another Giants infielder goes down.

Wisely went 1-for-4 with an RBI double in Monday's 6-5 loss to the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

Wisely cracked a ground-rule double to right-center field in the second inning, driving in a run and pulling the Giants within two. The 26-year-old has seen limited playing time recently, though he did draw starts at second base in back-to-back games. Over 10 outings this month, Wisely is slashing .269/.296/.500 with six RBI, four runs scored, three doubles, a home run and a stolen base across 27 plate appearances.
