In discussion with Pat Gillick, David said that when Chase gets to be their regular starting second baseman, he will be one of the best to ever play that position!
Years later, Joe Morgan calling a game of his, stated "You might be looking at the greatest hitting second basemen...Ever!"

David said on FOX as well in a MLB meeting a season ago that Nolan was about to BURST onto the scene and will stay on top in the future!

David stated on-air that this kid IS the real deal out of Washington when some said his height and weight will be a problem at the next level.

At a owners meeting, David was asked about Trumbo. David stated he liked him a lot but is more excited about Trout coming up from triple A the following season.

David called Jon Daniels to congratulate him on the brilliant move of aquiring Vladimir Guerrero, when the press downgraded it and said his career is done, David said that Jon will receive accolades at the end of the season for aquiring him. Vladimir won DH of the year and Jon won exec of the year.

In 1998, David went on TV and said if someone takes a shot on the demoted Jermaine Dye, he will comeback and shock eveyone. A certain GM at a owners meeting a year later wanted to know how did David come to that conculsion and that was his favorite call. Jermaine joined David in 2001 on-air and thanked him, David responded by saying, "I want to go on record Jermaine, that this is only the beginning of a successful comeback!" A few years later, Jermaine won The MVP of The World Series.

When David went on record in a interview before the 2007 season began that The Red Sox were going to win it because of Francona, 12 writers under the same umbrella went against him. Terry called and thanked David.

In David's breakdown sheets to Pat, he stated the obvious success of players (Rollins, etc) but he also said that he made lots of other (i.e. Pedro Feliz) smart moves as well, like sticking with Ruiz and that he will deliver better than expected.

David had Carlos join him on his show in 2001, he explained to Carlos his past calls and stated that he was going to be the next big hitter in the league...When Carlos signed his fat contract years later, David smiled.

David explained to Jack two years post Jack winning manager of the year that he has bigger success ahead. Jack went on to win the world series with the Florida Marlins.

Ned bounced back this year (2015) as David projected before his WS run.
