Default Big Name Busts...

I'm putting together this thread to express displeasure and frustration with star players who've been awful this season. I'm factoring in both ineffectiveness and injury. The top 5 that come to mind right now are:

Pablo Sandoval
Adrian Gonzalez (hot lately though)
Jose Reyes
Dustin Pedroia
Justin Upton
Tim Lincecum
Cliff Lee
James Shields
Heath Bell

Please, feel free to vent and add more...

Pablo may have been injured, but he hasn't been ineffective at all.

Not awfully ineffective but on pace for like 18-20 homers in a full season, way below expectations. Combining that with his injuries makes him a bust to me.

I think people expect too much from him. He should hit around 20 homers minimum, but the 35 people used to project is too much. He's been poorly labeled in my opinion.

4 of my keepers...finally rid of Lincecum.
Pedroia is hopefully heating up.
Lee...ugh....Upton...so inconsistent this year.
My entire pitching staff do one thing incredibly well...but then suck at one category.

I'm doubling down on "No Power Pablo" being a monster bust. Very disappointing power, none since his recent return, and now without Melky, he's in big trouble. BTW, literally as I finished initially creating this thread, Uggla and Reynolds started to get hot and have been since.

Has he moved his way off this list?
