Wilson (1-1) was credited with the win in Tuesday's 8-3 victory over the Marlins, giving up one hit over 1.1 scoreless innings of relief. He struck out two.
EDGE Analysis
The southpaw was the first pitcher out of the bullpen after Corey Oswalt gave the Mets a solid effort in his emergency start. Wilson's 4.70 ERA and 1.70 WHIP aren't pretty, but his 10:4 K:BB through 7.2 innings suggests he's been a little unlucky. He's also held the opposition off the scoreboard in seven of his nine appearances, collecting five holds along the way. Expect Wilson to continue seeing high-leverage work.

Wilson gave up one hit and struck out one in one-third of an inning Saturday to record his second hold of the season in an extra-inning loss to Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
He was able to face fewer than three batters per MLB's new bullpen usage rules, as his punchout of Ronald Acuna with runners on the corners ended the eighth inning. Wilson is the only southpaw in the Mets' bullpen at the moment, and his ability to handle high-leverage spots should allow him to be a consistent source of holds in the shortened 2020 season.

Wilson has yet to allow a baserunner through two spring innings, striking out four of the six batters he's faced, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The southpaw was effective last season in between IL stints, and a healthy Wilson has come out blazing in camp. He's set to be the top left-hander in the Mets' bullpen this season, but the new three-batter minimum rule likely won't impact him much -- over his career, the 32-year-old has held right-handed hitters to a lower wOBA (.282) than lefties (.295), with comparable strikeout (26.9% vs. LH, 25.8% vs. RH) and walk (10.5% vs. LH, 10.9% vs. RH) rates.

Manager Mickey Callaway said Wilson likely won't pitch again this season, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Mets are eliminated from playoff contention and don't want to overwork Wilson, who dealt with an elbow injury earlier in summer. The lefty compiled a 2.54 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 44:19 K:BB across 39 innings this season.

Wilson allowed one walk and struck out two through a scoreless and hitless inning to record his fourth save in a 6-3 win over the Reds on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson made quick work of the Reds in the ninth inning despite a walk to nail down his fourth save. Wilson has received save opportunities as of late while Seth Lugo is being used in a setup role. The 32-year-old has a 4-2 record with a 2.61 ERA and 44 strikeouts through 44 appearances this season.

Wilson struck out one batter in a perfect ninth inning to record his third save of the season Saturday against the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson got the job done with a three-run lead, striking out Max Muncy before retiring Chris Taylor and Cody Bellinger. The lefty's last two outings have now been saves. Edwin Diaz hasn't recorded a save in over a month, while Seth Lugo, who earned a save in his previous outing, was used in the eighth inning Saturday.

Wilson allowed two hits and a walk with one strikeout during a four-out save to secure a 3-2 victory against the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The Diamondbacks had the tying run at third base with one out in the ninth, but Wilson left him stranded at third. Things were certainly interesting in this one, and Wilson allowed two runs in his last outing. However, he owns a 1.50 ERA over the last month. Wilson is 4-1 with two saves, nine holds, a 2.38 ERA, a 1.29 WHIP and 37 strikeouts in 34 innings this season.

Wilson gave up a hit and struck out two in a scoreless eighth inning during the first game of Monday's doubleheader sweep of the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
The southpaw has been one of the more dependable arms in the Mets' bullpen since coming off the IL, posting a 0.79 ERA and 10:6 K:BB through 11.1 innings since the beginning of July with two wins and four holds. Wilson's current 2.61 ERA on the season would be the best mark of his career since his rookie campaign with Pittsburgh in 2013.

Wilson (elbow) was activated from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson landed on the shelf May 11 due to left elbow soreness, and he's finally been cleared to return after suffering a setback in mid-June. Chris Mazza was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse in a corresponding move.

Wilson (elbow) resumed his minor-league rehab assignment Saturday with short-season Brooklyn, tossing a scoreless inning.
EDGE Analysis
He struck out two and gave up one hit and a walk in the 20-pitch outing, his first since being pulled off his rehab assignment June 15. According to Anthony DiComo of MLB.com, the Mets will re-evaluate Wilson on Monday before determining his next step, but the southpaw will likely require at least one more outing in the minors before returning from the 10-day injured list.
