Mind-blowing that anybody saw Doc in the spring of 1982 & didn't immediately recognize the best pitcher in the draft. 300 K in 191 IP in A ball in 1983, 276 K & 2d in the Cy Young voting in 1984.https://twitter.com/DocGooden16/status/1134534594580176897 …
Dunston didn't have the career projected for him - though 18 years in the bigs is nothing to sneeze at - but I can't blame anyone for taking a super-talented position player over a super-talented pitcher when both are 18-19 years old. And man did he have the tools.

I used to tease Doc about that all the time. Dunston made one of the greatest throws I've ever seen at Shea stadium on a relay from the LF corner to gun someone out at the plate.
