I've know seen more than a couple people mention Ryan Howard as a bust this year in fantasy baseball. Ryan Howard has not been a bust by any stretch of the imagination. People drafting Howard in the first round of fantasy drafts this year with thoughts of him posting a .300ish batting average were delusional. Nowhere on any of his stops in the minors was he ever a good hitter for average. He has always had tremendous power and a .260 type batting average. Last year was a fluke in the batting average department and to think it was repeatable is to ignore a mountain of statistics that say otherwise. He has done exactly what I expected this year: on pace for 40+ homers, a .265-.270 average and 120+ RBI. That's nothing to sneeze at.
