C.J. Wilson - S - Angels

C.J. Wilson allowed seven runs -- two earned -- in 6 1/3 innings as the Angels lost to the Astros on Tuesday.

Wilson was hit-or-miss, fanning 12 batters to go along with the seven runs allowed. He didn't get much help from his catcher, as Hank Conger had two fielding errors that led to the Astros' five-run third inning. The lefty has been generally good this season, so one rough outing shouldn't do much to change his standing in. He'll try to be better the next time out against the White Sox.

C.J. Wilson - S - Angels

C.J. Wilson moved to 3-0 this season by limiting the A's to two runs in 6 1/3 innings on Wednesday.

The bullpen held on from there in a 5-4 game, if only barely. Wilson still hasn't had a great outing this season -- he allowed six hits and walked five in this one -- but he also hasn't had any particularly bad ones and the Angels have scored 4-6 runs for him every time out. As a result, he's yet to take a loss despite a 4.04 ERA and a poor 1.57 WHIP.

C.J. Wilson - S - Angels

C.J. Wilson struck out nine while allowing three runs in 5 1/3 innings Friday in a win over the Mariners.

Wilson isn't doing much more than treading water, but thanks to generous run support, he has a 2-0 record to go along with his 4.30 ERA and 1.53 WHIP. Mixed leaguers should wait and see how he does against Oakland and Houston in his next two stats before they consider selling.

C.J. Wilson - S - Angels

C.J. Wilson allowed three runs on five hits over six innings and took a no-decision in his start Sunday against the Tigers.

Wilson didn't have his best stuff, but likely would have come away with a win if not for giving up a two-run homer to Prince Fielder. He posted four strikeouts and finished with 109 pitches. Wilson has a plus matchup in his next start Friday against the Mariners.
Apr 21 - 9:00 PM
C.J. Wilson - S - Angels

C.J. Wilson allowed just one run on five hits over six innings in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Astros.

Wilson was solid for the most part, but he struggled with his command (four walks) and had to be removed at 115 pitches after working up a high pitch count. It was his first win of the season after getting no-decisions in both of his previous outings. Wilson's next start will come against the Tigers this weekend.
Apr 14 - 6:56 PM
C.J. Wilson - S - Angels

C.J. Wilson allowed four runs -- three earned -- in six innings against the Reds on Wednesday.

Wilson actually did pretty well to limit the damage, as he allowed five hits and four walks over his six frames. The 32-year-old lefty had his worst year as a starter in 2012 and he still won 13 games in the process. Wilson isn't a frontline guy, but he's a serviceable third or fourth pitcher in mixed fantasy leagues.

C.J. Wilson - S - Angels

C.J. Wilson was absolutely obliterated in Friday’s loss to the Royals in Grapefruit League action, surrendering eight runs (six earned) on eight hits and a walk over 2 2/3 innings of work.

Five of the seven outs that Wilson recorded came via the strikeout, so he has that going for him at least. Eric Hosmer and Jeff Francoeur each knocked one over the boards on the afternoon against him. He’s had a very disappointing spring to this point, posting a 7.11 ERA and 1.97 WHIP over 12 2/3 innings, despite his 11/2 K/BB ratio.

C.J. Wilson - S - Angels

C.J. Wilson allowed six hits but only one run over three innings in Thursday's win over the Padres.

He struck out one and served up a longball to Jesus Guzman. Wilson has now allowed 10 hits over his first 4 2/3 innings this spring, but the Angels really only care if he finishes Cactus League play healthy.
Mar 7 - 7:54 PM
C.J. Wilson - S - Angels

C.J. Wilson allowed two runs on four hits in 1 2/3 innings in his first Cactus League start Saturday.

Wilson struck out two batters while not allowing a walk, so it wasn't all bad for the Angels' lefty on the day. Wilson, 32, had surgery to remove bone chips from his left elbow shortly after the 2012 season ended, so any spring statlines should be taken with a grain of salt. Having made at least 33 starts in each of his three seasons since becoming a starter, Wilson is as durable as it gets these days. He is on track to be ready for Opening Day.

C.J. Wilson - S - Angels

C.J. Wilson is on track to be fully recovered from elbow surgery by the opening of spring training.

Wilson had bone chips removed from his left elbow shortly after the end of the 2012 regular season. He has enjoyed a fairly normal winter to this point and should again carry decent value as a fantasy starter in 2013.

C.J. Wilson confirmed via his Twitter account Tuesday that after a few weeks of physical therapy, he's starting to feel like himself again and will throw soon.

He did add that there's still some bruising around his surgically repaired left elbow, though that is to be expected. The 31-year-old left-hander is on track to be fully recovered by the start of spring training.

C.J. Wilson - S - Angels

C.J. Wilson confirmed via his Twitter account Tuesday that surgery on his left elbow went well.

Wilson needed a couple of bone spurs cleaned out of his elbow. He'll need 4-6 weeks of recovery time, but should be 100 percent in time for spring training. The 31-year-old southpaw posted a 3.83 ERA and 173/91 K/BB ratio in 202 1/3 innings this season.

C.J. Wilson will need 4-6 weeks of recovery time following his October 23 surgery to clean out bone spurs in his pitching elbow.

Wilson pitched with the elbow issue for the last couple months of the season but wanted to delay a procedure while the Angels were chasing a playoff spot. The left-hander is expected to be 100 percent for spring training.

C.J. Wilson - S - Angels

C.J. Wilson is scheduled to have left elbow surgery on October 23.

Wilson revealed after his final start of the regular season last week that he pitched through bone spurs for the last couple of months. It's not considered a major operation and he's expected to be ready for spring training next year. The 31-year-old southpaw posted a 3.83 ERA and 173/91 K/BB ratio in 202 1/3 innings this season.
