Felix Jose

Junior Felix!

 

Bill James even touted him over Junior Griffey. That was until a couple of years later when it was discovered that Felix had lied about his age.

I think I'll sit this one out. LOL!!

 

That's pretty funny, actually. :D Let me go for OCF:

 

Hee Seop Choi

Ben Grieve

David Kelton

Jason Dubois

 

Etc......

 

OK. Let me add a real one

Scott Ruffcorn

(a few years from now) Jeff Francoeur

The Giants had a catcher in the late 80s early 90s. I cant remember his name but he was supposed to be real good. Never made it.

Kirk Manwaring????

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Ben McDonald - the "greatest college pitcher of all time".

 

I have a fear we may be adding Mark Prior to this list as well one day.

[bhogg]

Al Pedrique (1988 Topps All Star Rookie).

 

Somehow, the guy even made it on to the NES classic RBI Baseball.

Hollandsworth should be DFA'd solely for wearing that shirt.

Adam Piatt

 

I'm not sure if he qualifies. I remember a few years ago he had a K-Swiss shoe commercial and was pretty highly touted but then fell off the face of the earth.

Earl Cunningham

 

I read an article not to long ago talking about how he might have been the most talented 5 tool high schooler ever taken. Sadly he then ate the article and swung a bat at the reporter. Luckily for the reporter he could move and thus broke away and Earl made no contact.

[don_kessinger_was_good]

Mark Prior.

Kerry Wood

[FergieJ31]

Mark Prior.

 

I was waiting for that one, especially tonight :(

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I never realized Todd Hollandsworth was the long lost Manning brother. Perhaps he should see if he can walk on to the Browns.

Ryan "Little Unit" Anderson

[texascub]

Travis Blackley seems like someone who was pretty highly rated but he's taken a pretty big step back. He'll still only be 24 later this year so I guess that he can still turn it around.
