I don't think it necessarily means that Bonds is less 'valuable' than an average rookie. It's just that rookies are so cheap they are more cost-effective.
It's the old team wins-per-payroll measure. The leaders in that measure aren't good teams like the Giants or Braves--they're not even well-run teams like the A's and Twins. It's Tampa and Montreal in 2003.
Bonds won't help you as much in the wins-per-dollar department as, say, Rocco Baldelli.
Overall, very interesting stuff.
