#14 Dave Cash




Back in the 1970's the Pittsburgh Pirates had a Thunderdome style flight for 2nd base between Dave Cash and Rennie Stennett. Stennett won it. Cash was sent to the Pirates division rivals the Phillies. 
Here we see him after he signed with the Expos in 77, appearing in his warm-up jacket at Candlestick with a giant Marlboro ad in the background. 
A good fielder he was also a part of the Padres attempt in 1980 to get old-as mentioned in the John Curtis post-and he was brought in to improve their defense. While he provided the glove they wanted his offense slipped and by the end of the season he was riding the bench and he was released at the end of the spring of 1981.
