That's one point that's 100% correct. I was reading a Whitey Herzog book called "You're Missing A Great Game" recently. He worked in the Mets organization while Casey Stengal was the manager and he mentions how Nolan Ryan had a horrible work ethic when the Mets originally acquired him. He didn't think he'd amount to anything. Then Ryan went to spring training and was with Tom Seaver while Seaver was working out. Seaver had a superior work ethic and just being around him was all it took for Ryan to get his act together. There are so many things that affect how a player performs. It's way too early to make any call on Moore's future after only one year of Hartford hockey - especially when there were no flaws in his work ethic or performance at Harvard.
