    The Rockies drafted Tracy twice and Williams once, and the White Sox drafted Williams twice.

    Jonathan Schuerholz, Jr. was in the Braves system for a few years. Now he's a roving infield instructor. He'll get a minor league managerial gig soon.

    Meh. This isn't exactly Mike Kekich-Fritz Peterson.

    It's not even Gil Hodges-Bill Denehy. And don't even MENTION Chuck Tanner-Manny Sanguillen...

    Wasn't Schuerholz the one who drafted his daughter?

    I don't think so. That sounds like something I would remember.

    The daughter-drafting incident was White Sox GM Ron Schueler, almost 20 years ago!

    When players like Vance Wilson (who signed), Frank Menechino (who signed), Mario Valdez (who signed), Jim Mann (who signed), Graham Koonce (who signed), Ed Yarnall, Bob Howry, Placido Polanco, Mike Lincoln, Matt Wise, and Dave Roberts (none of whom signed) were still on the board! And Wonderful Terrific Monds.

    I knew the daughter-drafting thing was a long time ago ... and Schueler was a Brave once upon a time ... and they both start with "Schue" ... so sue me.

    EDIT: man, b-r hasn't even bothered to find out her batting and throwing, that's disappointing.

    Or her bunt-fielding.

    Bats left, throws left.

    Tracy must be a hell of a salesman: his kid Brian went 4-11, 5.65 for his career at UC Santa Barbara, and the Pirates took him as a 5th year senior with their 20th pick.

    I don't understand who it's supposed to please. All parties understand that it's a farce, right?

    I guess you can put it on your resume that you were drafted when you apply for high school coaching jobs and stuff.
