The Heidenheim Heidekoepfe added their second American import player. After right-handed pitcher Patrick Lawson the team of head coach Troy Williams is adding utility man Justin Wilson to the roster for the 2012 season. The 23-year-old graduate of the University of North Carolina (NCAA Division I) is supposed to play center field in the German Baseball-Bundesliga, but is capable of playing any position except catcher and pitcher. He had an OPS of .861 in 196 games in Division I ball. Tommy John surgery in the summer of 2010 denied a potential professional career. According to the press release he would like to use European Baseball as a springboard back to the United States.
