ESPN.com – Page2 – Most overpaid baseball players

6. Jose Lima, starting pitcher, Detroit Tigers ($7.25 million)
In seven-plus seasons, Lima’s won 60 and lost 72, and sports a lifetime ERA of 5.10. He’s being paid big bucks now because, for two years — 1998 and 1999 — he was a very good pitcher for the Astros. Now, he’s a terrible pitcher for the Tigers, sporting an ERA of 11.12 this season in only 22 2/3 innings pitched.
