He and his 2005 Bowman Chrome card looked so good after 36 HRs in 2005, I owned so many gold refractors and even the superfractor at one time. He was released a few weeks ago from his most recent organization and recently signed to a Japanese league.

Any guesses?

(sigh)

That kila or kala Guy?

Brett Harper?

chip cannon

Phil Hiatt

Here's a clue - what is Jeff's team?

Bam.

Thought as a 2nd generation player, and with a great first season in the FSL, a pitcher's league, he was destined for good things.

Ah well.

(Harper was a Met, originally -- it's not a Phillie, JP. I guess that's why I rarely prospect non-Phillies. Then again, does anyone wanna buy 250 Buck Shaw 2004 Bowman Chrome RCs? Maybe some Lou Marson stuff? He's batting .200 in AAA....)

You're thinking of Mike Durant -- a guy who you, Jim, and I prospected so hard we actually had to make an agreement that if a gold refractor came up, one of us could bid on 1-17, one of us could bid on 18-34, and the other one could bid on 35-50, so we didn't run them up on each other.

Still wound up paying $70 per.

Don't know what we were thinking, other than size. His stats sucked.

I met him at length last year . . . He's been on the clearwater thresher's (Hi-A) DL all year.

I thought it was Prince Fielder or Travis Hafner

That was my guess...only because I came across his Xfractor draft chrome in a bunch of cards a buddy gave me to sell.

Still got it :lol:

Not Craig Brazell is it??
