Burrell should only be drafted in very deep leagues at this point, but there is some potential for a bit of a comeback in 2010. .250-65-25-75-1 in 450 AB.

Positives / Upside	Pat the Bat was nothing of the kind in 2009, struggling to his worst season as a pro. He managed a mere .588 OPS against lefties, which pales in comparison to his .916 career mark against southpaws. Simply put, Burrell's track record is too long to think he could possibly be this bad again in 2010...so grab him if the price is right. .255-70-28-90-2 in 480 AB.
Negatives / Downside	Burrell did not comfortable as the DH, and his futility was so profound it's hard to build a case for a turnaround. He won't be eligible in the outfield to open sthe season, and there are too many cheap power options out there to warrant spending a pick on what looks like a washed-up slugger. .235-45-18-65-0 in 400 AB.
Recommendation	Only at a discount
Draft Position	300
