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

[springkerb at aol.com]

Based on the AAA numbers, it seems safe to say that Huber is no Mark Teahen.  (It also seems safe to say that Teahen will be back in the majors pretty quickly if he keeps raking like he has been for the past couple of weeks.)

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!

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!
  9: Hansen--wait! wrong column!!
 
Hon Mention, bargains: Broussard-8, Roberston-1
