Passing this along from Jim Casey, at the Facebook site for the Expansion Senators.
"Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Hope it's a safe and joyful day for all. In Expansion Nats history, today was the Rule 5 draft in 1962. The Nats picked up our friend and member Jim Duckworth from the Reds, Brant Alyea also from the Reds, and Lou Piniella from the Indians."
Oh so many of us kids from the 1960's remember Jim Duckworth and Brant Alyea, but how many here remember that Sweet Lou Pinella was as a Nat?
