Senators Trade Bill Wilson for Olson and Small
The Charleston Senators swap outfielder Bill Wilson to Birmingham to clear roster space for Bill Olson and Jimmy Small. Wilson has led the club with 13 hits in 27 at bats over nine games, including three doubles and three home runs, prompting fan discontent. The move hinges on Olson’s 24 hour recall status and pitching needs as the Barons push for Southern Association leadership.
