Tim Drummond 1987 Pirates
Tim Drummond was a right-handed reliever of the late 1980s. He had 12 saves at AA Prince William in the Pirates chain in 1986 and 10 saves and a 2.97 ERA in the PCL in 1987, so the Pirates gave him 5 major league innings that year (4.50 ERA). Drummond was not really a terribly good prospect, so the Pirates sent him and Mackey Sasser on to the Mets for Randy Milligan. The Mets, in turn, sent him on to the Twins in 1989 as part of the Frank Viola--Rick Aguilera trade. The Twins gave Drummond a couple more cups in 89-90, and then that was it. Drummond made a couple of card sets with the Twins, but I had never seen him with the Pirates until I found a 1987 yearbook for sale online. Here he is.
