Don't you just hate it?

The year is not over yet (for some like KJ Duke and LIndy not by a long shot), but this year I have been infected by the common fantasy malady of having to follow a couple of players who I was high on LAST YEAR, were BUSTS for me, and have had great years THIS YEAR.
You always have one or two, but this year at least FOUR have really busted my chops. Currently those four 2010 busts are NFBC ranked as the #1, #9, and #10 ranked outfielders and the #1 ranked third baseman.
In 2010, collectively the four for the year amassed 1,767 AB with 227 Runs, 65 Home Runs, 234 RBI's, 27 Stolen Bases and a 0.2439 Batting average.
This year, conversely, their numbers TO DATE are 2,357 AB and 377 Runs, 100 Home Runs, 379 RBI's, 78 Stolen Bases and a 0.308 Batting Average.
That's 590 (33%) more AB, 150 (46%) more Runs, 35 (54%) more Home Runs, 145 (62%) more RBI's, 51 (189%) more Stolen Bases, and 0.0641 more Batting Average.
The four guys I had on my team last year are Matt Kemp, Aramis Ramirez, Melky Cabrera, and Alex Gordon.
My timing sure sucks!
