Twenty wins by Mike Loynd in 1986 tied an NCAA record and helped the Florida State hurler win the Golden Spikes Award. Though he was most responsible for Florida State's run to the College World Series, Loynd was just a seventh-round pick by the Rangers. Still, he made it to the big leagues after just five Minor League starts. Loynd hung around as a player until 1994, but never made it back to the Majors after a 1-5 record for the Rangers in 1987.
