Earlier this week, the Phillies announced that they had selected Bryse Wilson’s contract.
He appeared in one game on June 18 (and went 2.0 innings without allowing a run).
That said, the Phillies have now designated Wilson for assignment.
Matt Gelb of The Athletic wrote: “Phillies have DFAd Bryse Wilson and optioned Max Lazar to Triple A. Kyle Backhus will be active tomorrow. Phillies haven’t announced yet, but Alan Rangel looks like a good bet for some innings.”
Looking At Wilson

Wilson was picked in the 4th round of the 2016 MLB Draft.
He spent the first 3.5 seasons of his career with the Atlanta Braves.
Following the Braves, the 28-year-old went on to play for the Pittsburgh Pirates, Milwaukee Brewers, Chicago White Sox (and Phillies) over nine total seasons.
The best season of his career came in 2023 with the Brewers when he went 6-0 with a 2.58 ERA in 53 games.

Wilson had started out this season playing for the Triple-A affiliate of the Phillies.
It will be interesting to see if he ends up with another team (or back with the Phillies’ organization).
