Whenever I'm writing about draft snafus. Morrow was definitely '06, the sequel that wasn't quite as terrible but still pretty bad. Nothing's gonna top 2005:
1 - J. Upton: 15.3 WAR2 - A. Gordon: 20.9 WAR3 - Clement: -1.2 WAR4 - R. Zimmerman: 32.2 WAR5 - Braun - 35.5 WAR6 - Romero - 9.8 WAR7 - Tulo - 30.2 WAR
Just. Brutal. I was stoked about Zimm, and fine with Tulo as a fallback and likely selection. Boy did that NOT work out. But then, none of Bavasi's guys did.
In this article I went through the Bavasi drafts as an overview, and the only semi-impactful picks are Fister, Morrow and Saunders. Chris Tillman is putting it together, so maybe he counts now in the Morrow kind of #3-4 pitcher.
But really, it's just Fister. One guy making a real impact, out of 5 drafts. That's just rough.
