BOSTON, MA – JUNE 13: Michael Saunders /

Least Valuable Position Player

Michael Saunders (-6 points)

It was a tough stint with the Phillies for the veteran left but it is hard to fault GM Matt Klentak for taking a shot in the dark. Saunders hit just .205 as a Phillie with just six home runs and 20 RBIs.

Runner Up

Maikel Franco and Cameron Rupp (-5 points)

Rupp has been horrendous and has lost a decent amount of playing time because of it. The veteran backstop is hitting just .220 with just 14 extra base hits. Rupp has also struck out in over 30% of his at bats.
