The Red Sox signed Wilson to a one-year, $2.25 million contract Thursday, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

He will have the ability to earn an additional $750,000 in incentives. After missing the 2023 season following Tommy John surgery, Wilson held a 5.59 ERA but a 51:13 K:BB across 46.2 frames for the Reds in 2024. The 37-year-old will give the Red Sox another lefty in the bullpen alongside Brennan Bernardino.

Wilson retired both batters he faced and recorded his first save in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Lucas Sims was first to get the save opportunity, but he departed after allowing two Cubs to reach base. Enter Wilson, who induced a popout and a groundout to record his first save since September of 2019. Presumably, closer Alexis Diaz was unavailable after having thrown a combined 42 pitches Thursday and Friday. Wilson, who returned from the injured list last week, has a 5.93 ERA over 20 outings (13.2 innings) this season.

The Reds reinstated Wilson (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

After being placed on the IL on May 17 with left shoulder tightness, Wilson didn't require a minor-league rehab assignment prior to being activated, as the Reds were comfortable enough with how he looked over multiple bullpen sessions to bring him back on the 26-man active roster. Southpaw Alex Young was optioned to Triple-A Louisville to make room in the bullpen for WIlson.

The Reds placed Wilson on the 15-day injured list Friday with left shoulder tightness.

EDGE Analysis

Wilson struck out the only batter he faced during Thursday's win over the Dodgers in three pitches, though it seems he is now dealing with shoulder problems following his appearance. With the 36-year-old southpaw sidelined for the next two weeks, Carson Spiers will come up from Triple-A Louisville to fill the open spot on Cincinnati's pitching staff.

Wilson (knee) has made two relief appearances since exiting early in a 6-4 loss to the Padres on April 30, recording two outs while surrendering four earned runs on four hits and no walks.

EDGE Analysis

After leaving the April 30 game when he took a line drive off his right knee, Wilson was sent in for X-rays, which revealed no major damage. He went unused for the next couple of days before he was summoned out of the bullpen Friday and Tuesday. He struck out the lone batter he faced in Friday's 3-0 loss to Baltimore, but he was bludgeoned for four hits -- including two home runs -- in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to Arizona.

X-rays on Wilson's right knee came back negative Tuesday, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wilson had to make an early exit from Tuesday's game after taking a line drive off the inside of his right knee, but it appears he was able to get through the incident without suffering any severe damage. He likely won't pitch for a few days as he deals with lingering soreness, but a trip to the injured list doesn't seem necessary.

Wilson was removed from Tuesday's game against the Padres with an apparent knee injury, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wilson took a line drive off the inside of his right knee during the eighth inning of Tuesday's contest and was immediately removed from the game. The severity of his injury remains unclear, but the Reds should offer and update once they know more.

Wilson signed a one-year contract with the Reds on Friday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The move appears to be in direct response to Alex Young (back) needing a stint on the injured list to begin the season. Wilson recently opted out of his minor-league deal with the Dodgers after striking out nine and allowing two runs over four spring innings. The 36-year-old last appeared in the majors with the Reds in 2022 before needing Tommy John surgery.

Wilson opted out of his minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Tuesday, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wilson presumably didn't make the cut for Los Angeles' Opening Day bullpen after giving up two earned runs over four innings this spring, and he will now enter the open market. The 36-year-old lefty hasn't pitched in the majors since undergoing Tommy John surgery in June 2022.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Saturday that Wilson is one player who has caught his attention in camp, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wilson is with the Dodgers on a minor-league contract, so he's not on the 40-man roster and is far from guaranteed to break camp with the big club. However, given Roberts' comments, there's at least a chance that the left-hander hurler could make the Opening Day roster, and he's made his presence known with a 10:1 K:BB over four innings across four spring outings (though he's also given up two runs on five hits). Wilson has had plenty of success in the majors with 18 career saves and 132 career holds, but he hasn't pitched in the big leagues since undergoing Tommy John surgery in June of 2022.
