The Worst #1 Draft Picks ... ever

Inspired by Matt F*ckin' BushHome Run Derby put together a list of #1 Overall Draft Picks who didn't exactly pan out.

So when you feel down about the abject baseball failure of the Padres' drafting of Matt F*ckin Bush, just think ... there are other teams who f*cked up just as bad. 

Maybe.

There are two other #1 overall Draft Picks who never played a game in the Major Leagues.

Last time at the "SD County Fair" Beer Garden

I bought the wristband thing so I could taste five different beers. My first pick overall was Green Flash IPA. All told, I was not unsatisfied, but I think I could have chosen a better overall #1 draft.

Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you? ◔ヮ◔
