In response to "Is the following statement correct? Since 1980, Dwight Gooden and Jack McDowell are the only two pitchers drafted..." by Inigo

I wouldn't be surprised. Top 5 picks is a pretty small sample. in 29 years, that's only 145 total players.

Likely most of those would be position players. Conservatively if half were pitchers, that's still only 73 pitchers. Two of them having more than 100 wins isn't surprising.
