As a Cards fan, I have to go with Dexter Fowler or Brett Cecil. They are absolute trash, making some serious $, and we have plenty pitching and outfield prospects. Although it could be Chris Davis though, too

 

[DirtyBird]

Seems like we have several snubs from the list

[Brian88]

Chris Tillman goes to the top of the list as soon as they activate him.

[LocoChris]

Albert Pujols? Seriously? This poll is a joke.

[ReclaimTheCrown]

Honestly, and not just trying to crucify Chris Davis because that has happened plenty this year, but how is there a list like this and CD is not on it?

Kansas City has 3 or the 4 worst war pitchers in all of baseball all guys doing even worse then Tilman.  Blaine Boyer is -1.7 and only pitched in 20 innings that is pretty hard to do.

Sounds like they are actively tanking?

Pujols’ contract is a joke, but even on the Angels roster, Kole Calhoun (.170/.220/.260), seems like a better candidate for this poll. 

That’s Davis territory.

In fairness if Tillman hadn't been on the disabled list for the last two months with his "Injury" no one would be able to catch him for worst pitcher in the league/

Yeah, but then they’d have a lock on the #1.

Where's the CD love? He's owed 92M the next  4 years. Pimple is owed 87 M the next 3, and CD is much worse than Albert.

I agree. But yeah. There are some other bad ones.
