Rich Bordi
In 1980, Rich Bordi was drafted by the Oakland Athletics in the 3rd round, 56th overall, and became the final A's player to be signed by Charlie Finley. He made his major league debut shortly after signing. Bordi bounced around between the minors and majors between 1980 and 1983, finally settling as a full-time reliever in 1984 with the Chicago Cubs, to whom he had been traded. However, he was not included on the team's postseason roster even after pitching well in 31 games. Between 1984 and 1986 with the Cubs, New York Yankees and Baltimore Orioles, he had an ERA well under 4.00. After those three fairly successful seasons, his career quickly went in the wrong direction. By age 29, he was out of the game but stayed in the game as a scout.
