Wilson's contract was selected by the Nationals on Tuesday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
The Nationals had to dig deep into their pool of available players in order to field a team for the start of the season, as they have a large group of expected major-leaguers sidelined due to COVID-19 protocols. Wilson is unlikely to find himself in the starting lineup, as he has yet to advance beyond Low-A -- where he hit just .215/.311/.323 in 77 games in 2019 -- but he gives the team another option in center field.
