Talk:Bill Kirkpatrick

From BR Bullpen

1) Drafted in 1967, not did not pitch until 1969. I'm assuming Vietnam, but would like confirmation.

2) Does he deserve a minor league star category? - --Mischa 13:26, 6 April 2007 (EDT)

According to the Expos 1975 Media Guide: "Originally selected by Baltimore in 1967 draft, but elected to continue studies in college before signing". He may well have made that choice to avoid the military draft. He was always considered a pretty marginal player; he never even made the Expos' major league roster, in spite of some pretty thin pitching in 1975 and 1976... --Philippe 13:42, 6 April 2007 (EDT)

Thanks for the clarifications. - --Mischa 14:07, 6 April 2007 (EDT)
