Evans and Kingman were probably (from memory) the first guys to break the "400+ HR gets you in rule".
Evans' WAR was close, but for yucks I checked Kingman's and it was just 17+! How does a guy hit nearly 450 HR in 16 seasons and have that WAR?
Also interesting - Evans was drafted by 5 clubs between '65 and '67 - Cubs, Yankees, Tigers, Phillies and A's - anyone know what the record is for most times drafted?
