Manny Ramirez - NYY - $25 mil, 4 years
Ken Griffey Jr. - SEA - $7 mil, 1 year
Mark Teixeira - LAA - $22 mil, 7 years - Wrong team, very close on the salary and length (Yanks 8 years, $22.5 mil)
Jeff Kent - Retirement
Pat Burrell - NYM - $12 mil, 4 years - Way off (Tampa Bay, 2 years, $8 mil)
Adam Dunn- ARI - $14 mil, 4 years
Ben Sheets - LAD - $18 mil, 4 years
C.C. Sabathia - NYY - $25 mil, 6 years - Close enough. (7 years, $23 mil)
Derek Lowe - NYM - $16 mil, 3 years
Ryan Dempster - CHC - $12 mil, 4 years - Close enough. (4 years, $13 mil)
A.J. Burnett - TOR - $15 mil, 4 years - Wrong team, close on salary and length (Yanks, 5 years, $16.5 mil)
Brian Fuentes - DET - $11 mil, 4 years - Way off. (Angels, 2 years, $8.75 mil)
Francisco Rodriguez - NYM - $15 mil, 5 years - Correct team. Way off on the details. The reliever market seems to have corrected itself from the crazy 4 year deals to Linebrink/Spieir type relievers (Mets, 3 years, $12.3 mil)
Jason Isringhausen - TEX - $6 mil, 1 years

I suck at guessing

That's probably because most other people aren't just guessing.

You thought Dunn was going to the Yankees? Where would he play?

[TheNamelessPoet]

I just updted mine and WOW... I forgot all about it... I never even filled in 1/2 of them... thO I have to admit I would have said 4 years 60 mill for low juset NEVER with the braves. I was thinking the giants honestly

[filihok]

You thought Dunn was going to the Yankees? Where would he play?

I dunno...maybe I read an online 'rumor' before I filled the thing out...

I'm sure that wasn't the worst prediction that anyone predicted

It was also made, I think, before stuff like the Swisher trade happened.

Well to be honest, when you predict a closer to net an 100 million dollar contract(give/take a few million), you are bound to do bad. Espically when you predict a Beane team being the one to give the 100 million dollar contract
