Adam Cassidy

Miami Sunbirds (2000-2002)
In the 2000 Inaugural Draft, Cassidy was drafted sixth overall by the Miami Sunbirds. Cassidy only missed one game during his first season and finished with a remarkable eleven home runs and 29 runners batted in. Although he was disappointed the team didn't reach the Championship Series, Cassidy renewed his contract with the Florida organization for one more year.

Cassidy continued to impress during the 2001 season, by significantly upping his game. A true work horse, Cassidy continues his streak; he didn't missed a game in the last two years. His batting average decreased just like his on-base percentage, but he still managed to hit 13 home runs and 40 RBI. His effort were sadly not enough for Miami to reach the Championship Series, as they finished fourth.

In 2002, Cassidy was able to raise his game up, batting a career-best .283 with 10 home runs and 25 runners batted in. Miami wasn't the team they used to be that year and Cassidy drew frustrated with the team. It didn't come as a surprise when he declined his option to remain with the team at the end of the season.

New York Bombers (2003-
Late in free agency, Cassidy was still available. Not many teams were ready to match his high salary request, combined with his attitude problems he developed over in Miami in 2002. New York finally decided to pick him up on a two-year deal.
