Jim, your Phillies rookies card made me think back to the long string of outfield "prospects" or reclamations the Phillies unveiled in the late 1960s/early-1970s:

1968 - Larry Hisle - miss (as a Phillie, ultimately)
1969 - Ron Stone - miss
1969 - Scott Reid - miss
1970 - Sam Parrilla - miss
1970 - Oscar Gamble - miss (as a Phillie)
1971 - Roger Freed - miss
1971 - Joe Lis - miss
1971 - Willie Montanez - hit
1971 - Mike Anderson - miss
1972 - Greg Luzinski - hit
1972 - Bill Robinson - hit
1973 - Mike Rogodzinski - miss
1974 - Jay Johnstone - hit
1975 - Alan Bannister - miss (as a Phillie)
1975 - Jerry Martin - hit
