Matthew John Wise (born November 18, 1975 in Montclair, California), is a former right-handed Major League Baseball pitcher.

Wise was drafted in the sixth round of the 1997 draft. He made his major league debut on August 2, 2000 with the Anaheim Angels. He was released by the Angels in 2003 and signed with the Milwaukee Brewers. The New York Mets signed Wise to a one-year contract on December 18, 2007.

In 209 career appearances, he has an ERA of 4.23. His two best pitches are an 89-92 mile per hour fastball and he is known for his changeup because of his deceptive arm action.
