Harlond Clift --- nicknamed "Darkie" because one of his teammates, upon being introduced, misheard his name as "Harlem," and from there things got really clever. Good ballplayer.

Considering there's a positional piece of the similarity formula, it's interesting that there are a lot of OFs up there. I guess David hits like a corner outfielder; lots of doubles, home runs, and Ks. metirish wrote: Fman99 wrote: Wow, did Eric Chavez fall off the side of the Earth or what? good call, the last decent year he had was 2006, injured a lot.....I mean this is a guy you would think steroids right? Plus the Oakland connection. Might as well assume yes.
