A's place SS Jacob Wilson, OF Tyler Soderstrom on IL

The Athletics took a hit to their lineup Monday, placing shortstop Jacob Wilson and outfielder Tyler Soderstrom on the injured list while bringing one of their top prospects to the majors.

Wilson went on the 10-day IL retroactive to June 26 with right thumb inflammation, while Soderstrom was placed on the 10-day IL retroactive to June 28 with a left hip impingement. The club also placed left-handed pitcher Jose Suarez on the paternity list.

In a corresponding set of moves, the Athletics selected infielder Joshua Kuroda-Grauer from Triple-A Las Vegas and recalled infielder Darell Hernaiz and right-hander Kade Morris. Right-hander Michael Kelly was designated for assignment to open a spot on the 40-man roster.

Kuroda-Grauer, ranked as the Athletics' No. 9 prospect by MLB.com, is set to make his major league debut. The 23-year-old opened the season at Double-A Midland before moving to Las Vegas in May, and he has hit .323 with seven home runs, 44 RBIs, 15 stolen bases and an .845 OPS in 75 minor league games this season.

He also leads all minor leaguers with 109 hits, ranks second with 76 runs and is tied for fifth with 23 doubles. A third-round pick in 2024, Kuroda-Grauer becomes the third player from that Athletics draft class to reach the majors, joining Nick Kurtz and Gage Jump.

The injuries remove two regular pieces from a productive Oakland lineup. Wilson is batting .277 with four homers and 26 RBIs in 50 games, while Soderstrom has 13 homers, 41 RBIs and a .242 average in 80 games.
