Yes doctor, I am sick. Sick of those who are spineless. Sick of those who feel self-entitled. Sick of those who are hypocrites. Yes doctor, an army is forming. Yes doctor, there will be a war. Yes doctor, there will be blood.....
I'd have to say Aubrey Huff. It was a tough choice though, but it's Huff because:
1) I had Cliff Floyd as my OF#3; with Floyd's injury, Huff was forced into full time OF duties (.561 OPS, 11 runs & 9 RBIs for the year)
2) With Huff into full time OF duties, I was now forced to start 3B Morgan Ensberg (.523 OPS, 7 runs & 5 RBIs for the year).
I'd pick Huff over Ensberg because Ensberg wasn't SUPPOSED to start every day for me (I thought I'd have the option of benching him if he started slow).
Other candidates for me: Brett Myers has been a total dissapointment and A.J. Pierzinski going from a .300 hitter to a .150 hitter with the change between leagues.
At least there are decent outfielders and corner infielders to plug in for my Aubrey Huff and Vernon Wells. My headache award goes to Jose "I'll be back tomorr-OW!" Reyes.
Maine has a good swing for a pitcher but on anything that moves, he has no chance. And if it's a fastball, it has to be up in the zone. Basically, the pitcher has to hit his bat. - Mike Pelfrey
Dotel, believe it or not... he had some bad outings in non-save situations. My other team: Kevin Millar (I have a gaping hole at 1B).

BGiles, who I traded for Mulder just in time for Giles to go on his tear and Mulder to get undressed - twice - by the Yanks. Also Reyes, needless to say.
