25-Year-Old Second Baseman2B
San Francisco Giants
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Wisely got some run at second base and in center field for the Giants last season as the team dealt with injuries and ineffectiveness at those spots. He did very little with the opportunities, putting up a lowly .497 OPS with a surprisingly-high 30.5 percent strikeout rate. The 24-year-old got on base at a .417 clip during his time at Triple-A Sacramento, and high walk rates have been a theme for him in the minors. Wisely had just a 6.9 percent walk rate with the big club, though, and he swung and missed way too much for a guy with an average exit velocity of just 85.9 mph. He'll compete for a utility job in 2024, but there doesn't look to be much of a path to regular at-bats. Read Past Outlooks

Gaining playing time at shortstop

May 28, 2024
Wisely went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Monday's 8-4 win over the Phillies.
ANALYSIS
After being called up from Triple-A Sacramento on May 11, Wisely started in just one of the ensuing 10 games, but the 25-year-old since appears to have moved into the strong side of a platoon at shortstop with Marco Luciano. Wisely has started in each of the last three games and in three of the Giants' previous four matchups with right-handed starting pitchers, going a collective 9-for-15 with a home run, a double, a stolen base, five RBI and three runs during that stretch. So long as he's swinging a hot bat, Wisely should continue to play ahead of Luciano until Nick Ahmed (wrist) is reinstated from the injured list.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Will focus on mental game in minors
2BSan Francisco Giants
June 7, 2023
According to Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle, Wisely will put an emphasis on improving his focus and mental game in the minors after being optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old committed five errors over the past two weeks, and it wasn't much of a surprise he was demoted when Joc Pederson and Thairo Estrada returned from the injured list Tuesday. Wisely has a .547 OPS in 88 plate appearances this year but received strong praise from manager Gabe Kapler, who said the utility player "has a chance to be a really good big leaguer for a long time." It's likely only a matter of time before Wisely receives another chance with the Giants.
