EDGE Analysis

Wilkerson had spent the 2023 season in the Athletics organization and compiled a 6.51 ERA and 1.60 WHIP while striking out 53 over 47 innings at Triple-A Las Vegas before he was granted free agency last week to pursue the opportunity overseas. The 34-year-old right-hander has previously made 14 appearances at the big-league level, but none since 2019.
