Baseball Almanac Top Quote

"First base, third base, it doesn't matter. This is a star (Kevin Young) in the making, the best of the National League's top one-team rookie crop in '93 with second baseman Carlos Garcia, outfielder Al Martin and whichever pitchers make the squad." - Columnist Paul White in USA Today Baseball Weekly ("These rookies ready to go", 03/24-30/1993)
