Familiarity breeds contempt

One of the things that really came into play this year was teams that had crucial keeper decisions to make.

Managers like Joe and Ricky, who had tough decisions to let Dan Haren and Josh Johnson go, respectively. Yet both of them got them back this year in the draft.

A job well done, I'm sure, in their minds.

But those weren't the only two managers who went back to players they liked having last year.


Not including keepers, a look at the (unofficial) count of rehashes. I only included it based on having a player for the majority of the season, not the draft.

Joe - 5
Rick - 4
Shea - 4 3
Mike - 3
Jack - 3
Bob - 3
Chris - 3
Andy - 2
Ken - 1
Dave - 1
Adam - 0
Hal - N/A
