Rationale? The lure of the unknown is no doubt very powerful. Visions of sugar plum fairies and all that. The book on the aforementioned players has already been written.

BTW, I attended the first MLB games of both McDonald and Stasburg. Well, we know what happened. The moral of the story - as a previous poster opined, sell’em while they’re hot!
