i personally think Zito, Carlos Silva, Magglio and Kuroda are the worst on there!

Silva is a waste of money but it has to be Zito.

Never understand why any team gives a pitcher a long term deal. They should hand them out in 3-4 year deals.

What's funny is that if there was some cosmic way to accurately assess the value of these players to their teams, they are probably ALL worth MORE than what they get paid. I know, I know ... "Doctors and policemen should get paid more!" but I hope you know what I mean.

Trendon, I do understand what you are saying but find it hard to believe half these guys add that much value to the team they play for. You can't tell me Silva generates 13 million in value to his team? Pretty confident you could get similar stats from a group of starters in the minors for a portion of that salary.
