State quarterback, was hitting just .207 through Sunday for the Tri-City Dust Devils. He was listed as a center fielder when drafted in the fourth round in June but has been playing second base in the minors. So<br \/>far, he has two homers and three steals but has been caught four times in 22 games. Wilson has 22 at-bats.<\/p>\n<p>This is the second summer where Wilson has struggled to hit in the minors. He hit just .205 for Gastonia in 2009. <\/p>\n<p>Wilson may make it in baseball, but he needs at-bats \u2013 and plenty of them \u2013 to adjust to wood bats and the pace of professional baseball.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Russell Wilson has struggled to hit in his summer as a minor leaguer in the Colorado Rockies system.
