Rick Ankiel
Kansas City Royals
OF: 100  
2010 Projected Value: $8
2010 Actual Value: $0 Difference: $-8
Based on 10-team AL-only league

Season Prognosis: Ankiel (30) likely felt like the Cardinals could have given him a break. After returning from the DL for a bruised shoulder in May, he became a fourth outfielder through the end of the year. He probably can still generate power from the stroke that produced 25 home runs in '08, so he should see plenty of at-bats this year.
