Their draft value surely has to decline for those reasons. It's like 40 years ago using the first pick on Earl Campbell or George Rogers, no one would do that today.
First guy to wear 0 was probably Al Oliver. You remember Al Oliver. One year the Veterans Committee, led by Henry Aaron and Al Kaline, gave more votes to Al Oliver than they did to Dic* Allen.
I like this, I think that he has a chance to be a thoroughbred, let's see him work through this in Toledo and I don't care if he stays there all year, I actually hope he does. And he was DH today, that pissed me off, I want him playing third base.
Something else Harris did really well is fill out the Toledo roster with some 30 year olds. Jonathan Davis, Andy Ibanez,and Andrew Knapp have all been great additions, creating a winning environment.
