Almost forgot, a few notes on the state of the Dodgers in 1999.
Here is their pitching rotation for the Big Club:
1. Darren Dreifort (15-13, 3.93 ERA in 1998)
2. Ramon Martinez (16-12, 3.50)
3. Chan Ho Park (12-12, 4.00)
4. Hideo Nomo (10-4, 4.30)
5. Ismael Valdes (10-10, 4.10)
Key Relievers: Scott Radinsky (4-6, 3.07 ERA, 39 saves in 1998), Antonio Osuna (2.34 ERA)
Catchers: Mike Piazza, Paul Lo Duca
Here are the rest of the Dodgers' 1999 draft picks:
Catcher Josh Paul ... Pitcher Erik Hiljus ... P Ryan Franklin ... P Dan Smith ... P Scott Sauerbeck ... 3B Cole Liniak ... SS Jason Dellaero.
Since I imported in 1998, the farm system for the Dodgers (and all teams, really) is pretty thin. That could help Zarzour's progression through the Minors... Maybe... Not a lot of pitching prospects ahead of him.
