Then there was Detroit's hot prospects of the 80's that Sparky was ready to put into the Hall of Fame: Torey Luvullo, Chris Pittaro, and Mike Laga.
Milwaukee had the top Farm System of the 80's as voted by Baseball America, and here's what they turned out: Joey Meyer, Billy Joe Robidoux, Glenn Braggs, Mike Birkbeck, etc.

Yeah, listening to Sparky's hyperbole over the latest prospect du jour in the Tiger's system made me wonder how he managed (no pun intended) to get Detroit to the series in '84, let alone the playoffs in '88. Tory Luvullo? Wasn't he compared to Mickey Mantle?
Anyways, my contribution:
Darryl Boston
Orestes Destrade (The next Cecil Fielder)
Kevin Maas
Michael Jordan
