Oh Preston Wilson!
Everybody looks so healthy around the Thanksgiving holidays. Maybe it's the tryptophane, or the pinot noir. In any case, a $6 bid price doesn't look so good for Preston Wilson, who is coming back from knee surgery and hasn't really looked like a major league player since early in 2006. But unlike Alex Escobar (see yesterday's correction), who has managed to eke out about 400 plate appearances during his lengthy career, Wilson was a bona fide star for a little while, and earned $12 and a World Series ring two years ago.
Don't count on him, but he's not necessarily done. Instead of $6 he should have been listed as a sleeper.
