Montreal Expos Draft Review: 1969
In reviewing the drafts of the Montreal Expos, we’ll try to highlight those who made it to The Show and eventually build as many informative pieces on these players as we can manage. They’ll be linked within each year’s review, as a reference, so continue to check in for more reading as they become available.
Also, by all means, if you have information, stories, pictures, etc.. about these players, we’d love to hear from you and have you share with other Expos fans, and MLB fans.
