Zhaire Daniel, RHP

Daniel had a short but productive career, playing parts of only 10 seasons but twice finishing in the top 3 for Pitcher of the Year. On a side note, the game messed up Daniel's MLB service time somehow. He should have less that 10 years but it says 15. He did not exist in 1900 when the fake service times were put into place.
