Via his agent, Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson confirmed that he has no plans to participate as a baseball player if he visits Texas Rangers camp. Wilson played in the Rockies’ system in 2010 and 2011, and the Rangers selected him this winter in MLB’s annual Rule 5 Draft.

Undeterred, the Rangers’ Class A team in Myrtle Beach wants Wilson in the worst way. The Myrtle Beach Pelicans even produced a Castaway parody to try to lure the Pro Bowl quarterback:

While there are way worse ways to spend a summer than playing baseball in Myrtle Beach, the Seahawks would not likely be keen on their franchise quarterback enduring the rigors and road trips of minor league baseball or stepping in the batter’s box against live-armed 19-year-old righties with “developing” control. And playing in the NFL, in this day and age, is a year-round commitment.
