12. Paul Wilson, 1994 Mets – $1.5 million
Wilson ended his career in 2005 with a career 4.86 era and 40-58 record, he failed to live up to lofty expectations. A series of shoulder injuries derailed his Mets’ career in 1999 and he travelled to Tampa Bay before finishing things off in Cincinnati.
11. Brian Taylor, 1991 Yankees – $1.55 million
Drafted by New York out of high school, Taylor never made it past the AA level. He finished his minor league career with a 22-30 record and 5.12 ERA. In 1993, he dislocated his shoulder and tore his labrum. Taylor hung up his cleats for good in 2000 after too many failed come back attempts.
