[USML Announce] Ask Andy

I don't think so.  I'm pretty sure he was originally drafted as a minor leaguer.

Wasn't Ellsbury also at $1 initially?

I think Carl Crawford's first contract ($5 as I recall) would have to rank pretty high.  Given the huge bucket of SBs, he would have been more valuable than either Bautista or Sizemore.  Jon Lester's original contract at $1 was pretty sweet.  And I believe Kenny Lofton was initially $4, if I remember correctly--pretty similar in value to Crawford (although we were playing straight roto then, so the runs scored wouldn't have helped his value).  For power hitters, I think Cecil Fielder for $1 would have to rank up there near the top.  I didn't have any of those guys, by the way, so this is not self-promotion.

Naah -- it was Grady Sizemore when I had him at $1 and even after I extended
is contract.

No.  That would be Bautista.
