In the final installment of our tour through the 2007 Atomic Roadrunners roster on the lookout for protectables, we encounter the fifth group of player - “The Not-so-Much’s”.  Self-explanatory:

The Not-So-Much’s

  • Chris Iannetta - Destined to be next in the line of Ben Petrick, J.D. Closser, of hyped Rockies rookie catchers?
  • Mike Fontenot -Can’t believe he’d cost $11 to protect.
  • Ruben Gotay - Once Luis Castillo was signed, he was doomed
  • Brendan Ryan - May be a good reserve pick for 2008, given the crap St. Louis will roll out at the keystone.
  • Alfredo Amezaga - Good player to have on a real baseball team - very versatile, but doesn’t run anymore.
  • Morgan Ensberg - 2007 wasn’t the bounceback I had hoped for.  Currently a free agent.
  • Ryan Ludwick - Decent mashing OF for St. Louis, may be worth a minor league pick
  • Ryan Spilborghs - Very good #4 OF that has some power and a .300 avg.  Will re-visit, and might go in the auction
  • Chris Sampson - Wasn’t that much stuff there to begin with, maybe better than Woody Williams - not a compliment
  • Saul Rivera - Seemed decent in stretches, led the league in appearances, may have been used up
