Bucky "Bleepin'" Dent? Oh well, I guess they can't have all-timers at every position.
Johnny Bench did not go first overall in the draft. The A's snagged him with the number 4 pick. The Yankees took your man "Sweet" Lou Whitaker with the first overall pick. Then the next two teams had brain farts, and left Bench sitting there for the A's.
