Check out my cartoons.
1. Goose
Gossage and Terry Forester. Both of
those guys led the AL in saves during the 70s.
2. Oscar
Gamble. In his seven years with the
Yankees, Oscar put up an OPS of .858. In
all, Oscar had a nice 17 year career.
3. Marvin
Delph, Ron Brewer and Sidney Moncrief.
Moncrief was the best pro player and Brewer had a nice run. Delph peaked in college. The three of them made Arkansas and entertaining
college team to watch.
4. Bob
Lanier. Bob’s game was nearly as big as
his feet.
5. Herb
Adderley. Before Deion Sanders there was
Herb Adderley. Herb had big time talent,
but without so much self-promotion.
6. Don
Perkins. Don was there for early days of
the Cowboys. They were pretty good by
the time he left.
7. Rick
Monday. Rick went on to have a good
career with a number of teams.
8. Neil
Walk. There was quite a drop off between
the first and second picks that year.
Neil had a nine year NBA career, averaging 12.6 ppg.
9. Dean
Chance. Chance had a WAR of 9.4 in
1964. For his 11 year career, his ERA
was an outstanding 2.92. Dean seems
somewhat overlooked based on his performance.
10. Marv
Fleming. Marv was a useful player who
was in the right places at the right times.
