Jason Wheeler

Jason MacDonald Wheeler was born on October 27, 1990 in Torrance, California.

The Minnesota Twins selected him in round eight of the 2011 MLB Draft. He was a Class-A Midwest League All-Star in 2012, going 14-6 with a 3.54 ERA. Wheeler reached Triple-A in 2014, but wasn't called up to the big leagues until 2017.

He made his only two Major League appearances on back-to-back days at the end of May 2017. Wheeler pitched the final two innings of a blowout loss against the Houston Astros on March 30th, allowing two runs (only one earned). He allowed three runs (only two earned) in one inning of action the next night. Minnesota designated him for assignment after that second game, and traded him to the Los Angeles Dodgers for cash.

Wheeler never reached the Majors again, spending time in the Dodgers and Baltimore Orioles farm systems. He also pitched professionally in Korea.
