Bob Tufts

Bob Tufts pitched for the Royals during the 1982 and 1983 seasons, compiling a mark of 2-0 in 16 appearances. A 6-5 lefty, Tufts was originally drafted by the Giants in 1977 and made it up to San Francisco before being acquired by the Royals in the trade that also brought Vida Blue to KC. Tufts recently joined Dave O to discuss his journey from Princeton to the Big Leagues, having his name blackballed because of the Royals drug scandal, the courageous (and thus far victorious) battle with multiple myeloma, his post-baseball career working on Wall Street and as a professor at NYU and much, much more.
