dennishow about bob feller in the 30's straight from high school w/that 100 mph fast ball.also not around then but i've heard joe dimaggio was famous b 4 he put on a yankee uniform. dizzy dean?? in the 30's was a one man show. carl hubble and lefty grove were still big names when i was a kid in the 50's. don mattingly's popularity coincided with the rise of baseball card fad of mid 80's and his stats were unheard of since the 30's.doubles/hits/avg. canseco had his time too,along with ryan (remember the price rise of his rookie card?)
