Wilson was drafted again as a second baseman by the Colorado Rockies in the fourth round of the 2010 draft and played second base in Single-A ball for two seasons with Tri-City and Asheville. He hit .230 in 32 games with Tri-City in 2010 and .228 with Asheville in 2011.
The Rangers acquired Wilson from the Rockies in December 2013 in the Major League Baseball Rule 5 draft. He also appeared at the Rangers' spring training facility last year after the Seahawks won the Super Bowl.
