WILSON GETS SOME ACTION

Russell Wilson saw some game time today at Yankees’ spring training. Wilson pinch hit for Aaron Judge in the fifth inning against the Braves. Wilson would go down with a swinging strikeout after seeing six pitches. The Super Bowl quarterback showed some good bat speed. His best cut came at first pitch fastball that he just missed and fouled straight back. Wilson day was short as he did not see any time on defense, coming out of the game immediately after his at bat. The Yankees really seemed to be rooting for him as everyone was up on the dugout railing for his at bat. Both the Yankees players and Wilson have said they have enjoyed having Russell in camp and both parties have learned a lot from one another. If this is all we see of Wilson this spring I’m sure he’ll be headed back to a locker room full of jokes in Seattle. Not the best showing by any stretch, but I could definitely name a few NFL quarterbacks that would look way worse out there. I mean, Wilson was a fourth round draft pick in the MLB back in 2010. Nobody is calling him Bo Jackson, but no one will ever be able to play both sports like Bo did. Stick to football Russell, cause you might not be a slugger but you are one hell of a quarterback.
