Year | Future Star | Did They Become A Star | |
1987 | Bo Jackson | Yes. One of the coolest All-Star Game home runs ever. Not to mention his football career. If only his hip had held up. | |
1987 | B.J. Surhoff | No. But had a surprisingly effective career. He was an All-Star during the steroid era. | |
1987 | Tim Pyznarski | No. | |
1987 | Pat Dodson | No. | |
1987 | Dave Magadan | No. I remember him mostly as a pinch hitter. | |
1987 | Rafael Palmeiro | Yes. With perhaps a little “Vitamin B12” help. | |
1988 | Kevin Elster | No. | |
1988 | Al Leiter | No. Although he did have a decent career. | |
1988 | Mike Campbell | No. | |
1988 | Joey Meyer | No. And I am tired of hearing about his massive minor league homer, he didn’t do the same in the majors. | |
1988 | José Lind | No. | |
1989 | Steve Searcy | No. | |
1989 | Gregg Jefferies | No. We were repeatedly told he would be a star, best he could be was occasionally decent. | |
1989 | Gary Sheffield | Yes. Did well with Barry’s “Cream.” | |
1989 | Sandy Alomar Jr. | No. Most of his all star games were due to his Brother and clueless fan voting. | |
1989 | Mike Harkey | No. |
