Same story every year it seems, Austin Kearns.

Though he has been hitting well sincebeing called back up .... trying to find the silver lining with that guy.

.....Although I recovered some in the mid-season draft-I added Peralta, Gomes, Shelton, Todd Jones, Brett Myers, Scott Olsen and Verlander for next year. I traded B.Giles, Vidro and Javy Lopez for Armando Benitez, Joe Maeur and Wade Miller two weeks ago.....

What a unpredictable year!

sleepers that i liked but didnt pan out were jerome williams and luke hudson..watch 'em break out next year

Closser, Buck, Rowand, Russ Adams, Mike Gonzalez, Kelvim Escobar, Dallas McPherson, Bobby Madritsch, Dan Meyer all have been a big disappointment.

Fortunately I have a longer list of guys I either drafted or had a close eye on going into the season...

Turnbow (Was following him in Spring Training when Ned Yost was gushing about his heater), Peralta & Barmes (I Heard Peter Gammons gush about them both in Spring Training), Dontrelle Willis (Who a lot of people slept on after his weak sophomore campaign), Chad Cordero, Dan Haren, Joe Blanton, Noah Lowry, Livan Hernandez, and I'm sure I could find a few more if I was at home and could look at my cheat sheets from before the season.

Overall I think I did pretty well with sleepers this season compared to the guys that went bust who I wasn't expecting to.
