Russell Wilson traded!

#1 Post by Vandal » Wed Feb 07, 2018 2:25 pm

The New York Yankees acquired Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson from the Texas Rangers for future considerations, the club announced Wednesday.

Wilson, a second baseman, was drafted by the Colorado Rockies in the fourth round in 2010. He played two years in the minors in Low A and Class A -- batting .228 with five home runs in 315 at-bats for Tri-City of the Northwest League and Asheville of the South Atlantic League in 2010 and 2011. He transferred from North Carolina State to Wisconsin in part because he wanted to maintain his commitment to baseball, but didn't play again professionally after the Seahawks drafted him in the third round in 2012.

In 2013, the Rangers selected Wilson in the Rule 5 draft; he made spring training appearances in 2014 and 2015.

I can't wait to tell my son "Did you hear Russel Wilson got traded to New York?!" He'll flip out until he gets The Rest of the Story®.

I told him last night. He didn't believe me, fervently (probably not the best use of that word, but what the heck). We had a good laugh once he Googled the trade.
