Junior never made it to Calgary sadly.
The Cannon I really remember watching a lot though was Tino Martinez. When I think of the Cannons - he's the name that comes to mind.

yeah I remember feeling quite cheated about Junior, but obviously AAA wasn't in the cards for him
my years in the park were mostly the first 2-4 years of existence, and I guess the guys who became the biggest pros I remember were Edgar (parts of 4 seasons in Calgary I think, pretty stunning for a HOFer), Tartabull and Reynolds...Mickey Brantley always seemed like a big deal to me, but didn't make a huge splash in the majors
