As for
Bart Johnson trying for the Buccos, there is an interesting interview on the White Sox Interactive site with him, done by Mark Liptak (
WSI's FlyingSock.com News System).
ML: 1977 was the last year you played with the Sox, they released you in April 1978. Why did you decide to retire?
BJ: “Well I actually signed with Oakland after the Sox released me and played for their minor league team in Vancouver. Then when Chuck (Tanner) became the Pirates manager in 1979, I tried out with them. They optioned me to the Mexican League and I pitched there until a strike came. I remember getting paid and put money in each of my shoes and left. I never went back.”
