Moore already is well on his way to becoming a star--in college football. He averaged 89 yards rushing per game at Tulane last fall, finishing just four yards shy of leading all NCAA Division I-A freshmen. He was one of the best athletes available in the 2000 draft, lasting until the fourth round only because of his gridiron commitment. He signed for $250,000, taking less money so he could continue to play football. He has the tools to become an outstanding center fielder. Moore runs a 6.39-second 60-yard dash and unlike many speedsters, he has hitting ability. He has yet to make his pro debut, but should get in a couple of months with one of San Diego's short-season clubs this summer before returning to Tulane in August for football practice.
