Player History
06-15-1990 Drafted in the 1990 first-year player draft (Round 1, Pick 5, 5th overall Pick) by the Pittsburgh Pirates.
06-20-1990 Injured (torn rotator cuff), out for 9-10 months.
01-01-1991 OSA scouting updated ratings (potential): Stuff: 2 (2); Movement: 6 (6); Control: 4 (4).

Poor guy. 2.2 scoreless in his return.

ROFL...got injured on the same day 1 year later...later in his career, Van Poppel went missing every June 20th, and later was found huddling in the janitors closet screaming "don't make me pitch today...please...don't make me pitch today..."

hahahaah

On the bright side, since he's out 13-14 months he won't get hurt on June 20 next year!
