Tommy Greene and His Glory Days with the Phillies

Related Topics: Tommy Greene

Tommy Greene was selected 14th overall by the Atlanta Braves in the 1985 MLB draft. Like most that are drafted to the Majors, Greene was just 18 years of age with a high school diploma and a dream. After a little over 4 years in the minor leagues, Greene made his MLB debut with the Braves in 1989. Between the debut in ’89 and the middle of the 1990 season Greene would only start 6 games for the Braves as he was considered one of the odd men out in the beginnings of what would become one of the best pitching staffs in MLB history by the mid-90’s.
