Found July 12, 2007 on The GNUru Fantasy Baseball:
Looking Back: The GNUru's Top 10 Breakout Pitchers
TEAMS: Colorado Rockies,  Oakland Athletics,  Milwaukee Brewers,  Seattle Mariners,  Tampa Bay Rays,  Pittsburgh Pirates,  Toronto Blue Jays
PLAYERS: Jeff Francis,  Chris Young,  Joe Blanton,  Dave Bush,  Felix Hernandez,  Scott Kazmir,  Zach Duke,  Gustavo Chacin
Prior to the start of the 2007 season, the GNUru identified the Top 10 Pitchers (http://www.thegnuru.com/content/view/39/27/) that were being touted by the big boys of fantasy baseball (CBS Sportsline, Yahoo, ESPN, etc.) as sleeper and breakout picks. These players were thought to be "Sexy Picks" and many were draft higher than expected due to their perceived value. Now that the season is at the midpoint, the GNUru is here to look back and grade himself with either a thumbs up or a thumbs down. You're not going to get that kind of evaluation over at the big boys!

    Zach Duke really surprised me this year with being sent back down to the minors. It's been the other two Pittsburgh starters Tom Gorzelanny and Ian Snell that have really impressed me.
