I suppose they have the most money to burn on long shots, but at the same time they have the most money to spend on actual experienced baseball players. You'd think that would be a tough roster to crack.
Well, they own his rights, so it's the Yankees or else he has to go back to his day job of being one of the better QBs.
Well, for starters, mediocre baseball players make QB money.
There are only fifteen players who made more than Russell Wilson did last year, and none of those guys struggled mightily in the low minors.
Russell really likes attention.
I don't think his chances are great but if they were, it wouldn't be a terrible life choice.
True, but if he wants to do so he needs to commit instead of treating it like adult fantasy camp.
He's participating for "multiple days" at camp and isn't playing in any spring training games. He hasn't played in a professional baseball game since 2011. Yet he's talking about "Hey Stanton and Judge, let's go win a World Series." That's delusional, a publicity stunt, or both.
Russell Wilson to Participate at Yankees Spring Training for 'Multiple Days'
"Go through all of this"? Go through what? It's pastoral sleepytime lawn recreation -- not like it's football or anything. He's having relaxing fun, like on a vacation.
Why is he doing this? I mean - I get it but why go through all of this for an excruciatingly long shot? Very strange.
Dang I miss the Expos... as a kid living in a border county there was this big hill between me and the rest of Maine, so I didn't get the New England TV channels nearly as well as I got CTV, I watched a lot of Expos growing up in the Tim Raines/Andres Galarraga/Dennis Martinez/Gary Carter era. I loved that team,Hopefully Brady won't defect to the Montreal Expos...
