But I have to disagree with your pick of "the most overpaid $9 million player in history." That's got to be Bobby Higginson, who made about $9 million in each of '04 & '05. His 2004 was bad enough (.246 AVG/.741 OPS), but in 2005: 2/26 with an OPS of .178, and that was his entire year. Good article, Seth.
