Wisdom entered Wednesday's game after Asdrubal Cabrera was removed due to a hand injury. Wisdom struck out in his only at-bat.
EDGE Analysis
The Rangers are downplaying Cabrera's injury, referring to his removal from the game as precautionary. Texas next plays Friday, so the team has time to monitor how the hand responds before making a decision about Cabrera's availability. If Cabrera can't go, expect Wisdom to fill in at third base.

Wisdom will start at first base and bat eighth Sunday against the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
With Rougned Odor (knee) recently joining Ronald Guzman (hamstring) on the shelf, the Rangers have sported a new-look left side of the infield of late. Wisdom will draw in for Guzman at first base in what marks his fourth consecutive start. The 27-year-old should have a fairly clear path to at-bats until at least one of the two injured players is activated.

Wisdom started at third base and went 1-for-4 with three strikeouts in Tuesday's 5-4 loss to Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
Wisdom got the start as Asdrubel Cabrera was given the day off after criss-crossing the country to be sworn in as an American citizen in Miami (Fla.). Cabrera is expected to play Wednesday while Wisdom retreats to bench duty.

The Rangers recalled Wisdom from Triple-A Nashville on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
He'll be available off the bench in the Rangers' series finale against the Angels after assuming the active roster spot of Ronald Guzman (hamstring), who was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. Guzman's absence for at least the next week and a half creates an opening at first base, but it's unclear if Wisdom will get a legitimate look in a starting role or if he'll merely function as corner-infield depth during his time with the big club. Logan Forsythe will get the first crack at replacing Guzman in Sunday's contest, and outfielder Joey Gallo could be a solution at the position, too.

Wisdom was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Wisdom had at least an outside shot of breaking camp with the team but won't get the shot to make an impact right away. The 27-year-old has spent the bulk of the last three season at Triple-A Memphis in the Cardinals' system, hitting .256/.327/.466.

Wisdom was traded from the Cardinals to the Rangers on Tuesday in exchange for Drew Robinson.
EDGE Analysis
Wisdom was no longer needed as corner infield depth in St. Louis following the acquisition of Paul Goldschmidt. The 27-year-old spent the majority of the 2018 season with Triple-A Memphis, hitting .288/.363/.480 with 15 homers and 11 stolen bases across 107 games. He also made his major-league debut, slashing .260/.362/.520 with four homers and a pair of steals across 32 games for the big club. Wisdom currently projects as infield depth for Texas, though he could also compete for a starting job if Jurickson Profar is traded before Opening Day.

Wisdom went 2-for-4 with a grand slam in Saturday's loss to the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
The grand slam provided all of the Cardinals' runs in their 17-4 loss. The 27-year-old now has four homers in 45 plate appearances in his debut season, hitting .231/.333/.538 overall.

Wisdom was recalled from Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Wisdom is up to replaced the injured Kolten Wong (hamstring), though he's exclusively a corner infielder, so he's likely limited to a bench role and isn't a direct replacement for the second baseman. The 27-year-old went 4-for-12 in his first taste of big-league action earlier in the month and has hit a solid .288/.363/.480 with 15 homers and 11 steals for Memphis this season, but his role will likely limit his fantasy value.

Wisdom was optioned to Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Wisdom went 4-for-12 in nine games with the Cardinals. He'll make way for new acquisition Matt Adams but could be back up in the big leagues when rosters expand in September.

Wisdom went 1-for-1 with a pinch-hit solo home run Sunday against the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
Wisdom took Jeremy Jeffress deep in the eighth inning to record his first career home run. The 26-year-old made his major league debut on August 12 and has appeared nearly exclusively as a pinch-hitter or defensive replacement, earning only 9 at-bats in eight appearances. He has racked up four hits in that limited sample, but has minimal value due to lack of playing time.
