Agree, good luck!

Buck did it right. Got drafted as a Jr and didn't go as he didn't have a signing bonus in the 15th round. The next year he went in the 5th round with a $200K bonus. Too bad Heddinger didn't do the same.

thanks @Stinger90

Liked these two comments about him
"one thing Farmer did was keep his composure. Even in spite of the early onslaught" and
"didn't let it get to him and enjoyed two straight quick third and fourth innings to help keep Detroit in the game early. The ability to do this after allowing home runs in consecutive innings certainly spoke volumes about the mental and physical mettle he possesses".

Not a great line, but he won't get the loss tonight.

Sure he'll be improved over the next couple of years. Don't forget that Glavine and Smoltz were so hot their first year or so. :D
