According to the Baseball-Reference.com website for Bobby Shantz (http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/shantbo01.shtml), Bobby Shantz was drafted by the Washington Senators from the New York Yankees on December 14, 1960 and on October 10, 1961 was drafted by the Houston Colt .45s from the Pittsburgh Pirates. And Gatewood was not drafted by the Mets in the expansion draft but was drafted by the Mets on November 27, 1961 from Dallas/Ft. Worth as part of the rule 5 draft of Minor League Players.
