At some point, there were going to have to be busts. Those players that just stink up the goodness of your Fantasy hockey team. You have seen the rest and below there will be… well… less. When this juncture hits, there are really two ways this can go: either bad or ugly. What we have below is not necessarily the literal lowest of the low. However, reality dictates that with a circumstance or two, these are players that it can turn really ugly for with an express train ride down to Fantasy Splitsville.

There is potential to be had, so if you do not draft one of the first six or seven goalies, you can slide down into the second or third tiers and do just as well. However, goalie runs have been common in drafts so you do want to keep that in mind. Especially because of goaltending, you want to actually show up to your draft.

2011 RotoRob MLB Draft Kit: Relief Pitcher Rankings

He was a workhorse last year, and even though his WHIP rose slightly, he was able to cut his ERA by giving up just one freaking homer all season long. Mr. Stingy doesn’t like when fans get a souvenir, apparently. Bell’s strikeout rate has risen the past two years, something Fantasy owners aren’t likely to complain about, but it’s also meant that it’s taking him longer to get through innings, and that’s something that could take a toll down the stretch. As good as Bell has been as a closer, he’s someone that could be traded and wind up in a less significant role on a contender. Food for thought.

2011 RotoRob MLB Draft Kit: Starting Pitchers Rankings

All Halladay did in his first year in Philadelphia was throw at least 250 IP for the second time in his career, improve his already ridiculously stingy control, set a new career high in strikeouts and just miss tying his career bests in wins and ERA. Oh, and did I mention that he happened to toss a no-hitter in his first ever playoff start? No pitcher in the majors can put the ball where he wants like Doc can, and other than a hiccup a few years back, he’s also been pretty much as durable as they come. There are tons of great starting options this year, but few are as safe as Halladay.

2011 RotoRob MLB Draft Kit: Outfield Rankings

There’s really nothing Braun can’t do on a baseball field. He can hit for average (.307 lifetime BA) and power (he’s smacked at least 25 dingers in all four seasons he’s been in the bigs), he has speed (at least 14 swipes every year), has turned himself into a solid outfielder and has a strong arm. Last year, plenty of his home runs turned into doubles, but he cut his strikeout rate, and given that he’s right in his power prime, it wouldn’t shock me if he made a run at 40 long bombs this year. With relatively little fanfare, Braun is in the early stages of compiling a simply tremendous career, perhaps Hall of Fame worthy in time.
