(As an aside, Fielder wasn’t even the best first baseman the Royals drafted in the fourth round in June 1982. In the main June draft that year, the Royals selected Will Clark, who went to college instead when the Royals wouldn’t meet his bonus demands. Clark remains the greatest player the Royals ever drafted but failed to sign. Teams had yet to learn what a bargain draft picks are, as that was the same draft in which the Giants failed to sign their second-round pick over a $6,000 difference – some kid named Barry Bonds. So somehow, the Royals drafted both Cecil Fielder and Will Clark in the same month … and came away with nothing.)
Brutal.
