from John Sickles:
1994: - Ryan Jaroncyk, New York Mets, California HS
18th overall. Jaroncyk was considered to be an excellent defender with a doubtful bat, and that's exactly what happened. He hit .237/.316/.308 in 154 minor league games at the A-ball level. He got so frustrated that he quit baseball in 1997, throwing his equipment in a dumpster. A brief comeback attempt in 1999 and 2000 ended after 20 games. Huge bust.
2002 - Jose Reyes, New York Mets Grade B+ Free Agent, 1999, Dominican Republic
Rated at Number 45, after strong year in the Sally League. I was concerned about low walk rate. But he overcame that and has emerged as an outstanding player.
