A former Clemson standout has been scooped up by this MLB team.

The Baltimore Orioles announced Thursday that they claimed infielder-outfielder Weston Wilson off waivers from the Philadelphia Phillies.

Wilson was drafted in the 17th round (No. 501 overall pick) of the 2016 MLB Draft by the Milwaukee Brewers and signed that June. The Phillies later signed him as a free agent in January 2023.

The 31-year-old utility man has posted a slash line of .242/.328/.428 with nine home runs, 11 doubles, one triple, 29 RBI, 33 runs scored and eight stolen bases across 103 games in his MLB career, all with the Phillies over parts of three seasons from 2023-25.

Wilson made his MLB debut in August 2023, when he homered in his first career plate appearance, and he finished the 2023 season with a .313 average, the homer, two RBI, five runs scored and three steals over eight games.

Wilson performed well again during the 2024 season, when he hit .284 with three homers, 10 RBI, 13 runs scored and three stolen bases across 41 games. He slashed only .198/.282/.369 in 54 regular season games for the Phillies in 2025, though he owns a career slash line of .250/.359/.475 in 120 at-bats against left-handed pitching.

On Aug. 15, 2024, Wilson made history by hitting for the cycle in the Phillies’ 13-3 win over the Washington Nationals at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. He achieved just the 10th cycle in Phillies history and became the ninth Phillie player to hit for the cycle, as Chuck Klein did it two times, while Wilson also became the first rookie in Phillies history to hit for the cycle.

At Clemson, Wilson was a career .260 hitter with a .330 on-base percentage in 175 games (164 starts) over three seasons from 2014-16. The High Point, N.C., native had 26 doubles, four triples, 14 homers, 94 RBIs, 95 runs, 62 walks, five hit-by-pitches and 18 steals.
