The IT IS HIGH Top Worst Prospects List

I'm sick of the Top 100 Prospects lists. I remember Brien Taylor atop them all. And Ruben Rivera. Andy Marte! Wilson Betemit! They are bogus. But we do know this: For some guys, the future is not wide open.

5. Kevin Millwood - 37, on life-support last year. Drilled in Scranton. Drilled in Pawtucket. Won 4 games for Rockies in miserable NL West. On life-support again.

4. Pedro Feliciano - 34 and hurt. Cashman's huge mistake. We'll be lucky if he ever throws a pitch for us.

3. Jamie Moyer - 49, and hasn't pitched since 2010. Born during administration of John F. Kennedy. Benjamin Button, he's not. Billy Crystal had as much chance of making a roster.

2. Andy Tracy, 37, Reno Whatevers, last year's oldest living minor leaguer. He could run for school board. Plays 1B, for whatever it's worth.

1. Our boy, of course. The Chemist. Do I have to say the name? Goodnight hugs.

    Then he's a better prospect than I thought.
