The Jeremy Ryan Slate Show How the Modern Athlete has Changed and How Bitcoin Saves the Future Feat. Former MLB All-Star Pitcher CJ Wilson
Christopher John Wilson is an American auto racing team owner and former professional baseball pitcher. Wilson pitched in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Texas Rangers from 2005 to 2011 and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim from 2012 to 2015. He is the founder and owner of sports car team CJ Wilson Racing, which competes in IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge full-time and WeatherTech SportsCar Championship part-time.
Wilson is a devoted Taoist and adheres to a Straight Edge way of life. As a sign of his choice of being Straight Edge, Wilson has the words ""Straight Edge"" tattooed along the length of his torso, Japanese characters on his shoulder that read ""Poison Free"" and ""XXX"" stitched on his blue glove as a straight edge symbol.
Wilson is highly interested in conservative politics, which he said is in stark contrast to other Major League baseball players. His characterizations of typical ballplayers in this same interview and some of his posts on the blog lonestarball.com generated minor controversy within the Rangers' clubhouse.
