Without scouring all of the rosters, I'll add the following to the bust
list:

 

1.  My own purchase of A.J. Burnett at $19.

2.  Brad's waste of $14 on B.J. Upton.

3.  Also, Justin Huber in the $2 reserve round.  I just saw that he's in an
0-17 skid down in AAA!

Subject: [USML Announce] Draft Day Busts and Bargains...

 

While impatiently waiting Jeff Winick's quarterly report on the state of
USML affairs, as well as his review about his earlier prognostications, I
decided to submit to the League my list of draft day busts and bargains.
Chime in, lads!!  Here goes: 

 

The Busts:

  46: A-Rod--Klein knew what he was doing not bidding this high...

  38: Hafner--too much money, too little pop this year

  36: V. Wells--shockingly over priced

  30: R. Sexson--ugly numbers

  27: Damon--a dog

  26: T. Hunter (cf. to J. Thome...)

  25: Beltre--makes me sick, physically

  25: Guardardo--toast, but still may get a few saves as Ms peddle him

   ...oops, forgot the Unit at 26--ouch

  26: Huff...and puff about this one

  Cabrera/15 and Baker/13: see Winick's vitriolic attack in his pre-season
forecast--right on the money, Jeffrey!

  21: Foulke--doing nice at set-up role

  17: Garland--no thanks

 

Bargains:

  1: Putz--cheap closer

  1: Zumaya--will he close or start?  With that 100+ fastball who cares!

  7: Crede--coolin' off but still great value

  1: Otsuka--closer!

  1: Borchard--Repubs plan ahead by padding FAAB account!

  10: Mussina--moose is loose!
