re: Best prospect you ever saw play that never made it professionally....

Yep, Cole could've played SEC football if he wanted to. He really was a once in a century athlete for his size. Think 5'9" 160 pound Bo Jackson. When players like Sabathia and Pujols say he was the best baseball player they have ever seen, you know he had to be something special. It's ashamed he lived in a time when video camera's weren't everywhere. People would be in absolute disbelief after seeing some of the things that little dude could do.
