I having a brain fart. Who was that pitcher that the Big Boss paid a lot of money for but he end up to be a dump? GAwd, I can't remember his name, but I remember him being in prison and other goodie goodie stuff.

Darryl Strawberry?

When did Darryl became a pitcher? :D

No, this was a rookie that the big boss paid for. He went through the farm system.

ETA: Just remembered, his name is Brian Taylor. He was never involved in drugs, but I remember him fighting and hurting his arm. After that, his career went nowhere.

'member Hideki Irabu?

Yes, he got in a bar room brawl and messed up his shoulder. Never ended up pitching an inning for the Yankees.

At first I thought you were talking about the immortal Steve Howe, the Keith Richards of baseball. How many drug tests did he fail, around 8?
