Another crop of early 90′s prospects here. What became of them?
Mike Piazza went on to play 16 seasons in the Major Leagues and is regarded as one of the best hitting catchers of all time. He officially announced his retirement in 2008 and ended his career with a .308 career batting average with 427 home runs. He will likely be inducted into the Hall of Fame someday.
Brook Fordyce played in the Major Leagues 10 seasons and was regarded as a good hitting catcher, especially in the 2000 season when he hit .301 with 14 home runs. He retired in 2004.
Carlos Delgado is surprisingly still playing baseball in the Boston Red Sox organization. He is 38 years old and has 473 career home runs. He probably wants to hit those remaining 27 home runs to reach the 500 club before he retires.
Donnie Leshnock was drafted by the New York Yankees and never made it past the single-A level.
