Can't believe my dad never told me about Ken Hubbs. What a tragedy. ROY at 20 and dead at 22. Dang. Like that would crush a young fan.
I don't think I have ever heard anybody describe Kris Bryant as a bust. This is so far from the truth. This dude blazed through the minors, won ROY and put up an MVP worthy season in his first 3 seasons, one of which was culled by an organizational philosophy and may have cost them a 100 win season and division title. He won the MVP in his 2nd season, made the final assist to break the most daunting curse in sports history, and went on to make 4 All-Star games. I don't think he is a bust despite the fact that his prime was shorter than expected. Bust in that you expected a Hall of Famer? Or was that all tongue-in-cheek?
