There are many different paths to success in baseball, but only a few represent that of Anthony Gose.
Nine years ago, Gose was an outfielder in the Toronto Blue Jays' system and among the best prospects in baseball. Baseball America ranked him as the No. 39 overall prospect. MLB Pipeline had him at No. 57. Baseball Prospectus at No. 68.
Gose had a superstar ceiling thanks to his elite athleticism, but reaching it turned out to be difficult. Gose made his MLB debut in 2012, but would end up hitting just .240/.309/.348 in the big leagues.
