The best and worst baseball players for the money
Article from Canadian Business

http://ca.finance.yahoo.com/personal-finance/article/canadianbusiness/1286/the-best-and-worst-baseball-players-for-the-money

Some interesting picks in there, too many to excerpt. There are some really big salaries that didn't do much this year.

7. I thought Aaron Hill should have at least got an Hon Mention for 2B...
Hill hit .286 with 36 HR and 108 RBI on a $2.59 mil salary.

Pedroia was .296 with 15 HR and 72 RBI on $1.75 mil.

5. That was a tough one though.
There was a time when Zito was THE pitcher in MLB, and I would have loved to see him on the Sox. I can't blame any team for taking a shot on him.

6. Loved the comments about Sandoval...

We don't get much Giants coverage up here in Toronto.
