LOL yep and good to see they are targeting another left handed hitter than someone who could have actually helped like Wang.

Not the Yankees fault that they are a money making machine due to their fans and can afford a $200 million payroll. Not the Yankees fault that the Blue Jays wasted big money on Rios and Wells. Not the Yankees fault that the Jays draw flies compared to 1992/1993.

I agree..when we spent the most in baseball in 92-93 we beat everyone. Its a simple formula..have the best players..whether you buy them or raise them and you should win more than anyone else. Sometimes things go weird and a small market team makes a good run, but those are few and seem like a bigger story.

The drafting system and lack of a cap will always allow money to reign supreme. Money allows you to cover up mistakes.

Re: MLB '10: The Show Official Team Ratings and Explanation

Not sure if this was asked/answered, wanted to know if the team rankings change throughout the year with player moves and attribute changes, as Russell stated the a bench factors into the hitting rating, what happens if a team at the July deadline picks up a better hitter to come off the bench, would we see that team improve their hitting rating? Or are these rankings set one time as a snapshot in time and will not change throughout the year.

Interesting the Marlins pitching is rated below the Indians. I think the Indians would trade any one of their 5 for one of the Marlins. Kerry Wood or Leo Nunez is a push, bullpens are similiar. interesting

Re: MLB '10: The Show Official Team Ratings and Explanation

Remember the old addage, it why we play the game. Dont get too caught up in the ratings. Great discussion but dont take it as a insult.Besides half you guys are going to trade for Mauer or somebody in your franchise , which will change the ratings again anyway

It's going to be a great year to be a Rockies fan both on the field in real life and in The Show. The players are saying there is a special feeling going into the season this year that hasn't been there in the past. Rockies fans, get pumped!

Re: MLB '10: The Show Official Team Ratings and Explanation

Found the team stats for defense...I find it interesting how the team who was 13th in Errors is #2 on defense, and 19th in Fielding %. How is this physically possible?! I understand they use a different system, but maybe it needs to be changed.

Pittsburgh actually lead the league in fewest errors and highest fielding %, Phillies 2nd fewest errors and 3rd best fielding %. So why is it that the Mets rate 18 spots higher then the pirates on defense, and 3 spots higher then the phillies?

This is like saying Shaq is a better free throw shooter than Mark Price! The numbers don't lie!

I find it shocking when I turn on the TV and hear things like David Wright is stirring up the NL East because he says its their goal to win the NL East and World Series. Isn't the point of playing to win the World Series? Isn't that every team goal? I'm a Phillies fan, but christ, they turn EVERYTHING into something much larger than it is. I'd be pissed if I were a Mets fan and I heard Wright say, well I dont feel to great about this year, maybe wild card?!

Fellas, keep the posts on topic. You have an issue with the ratings, find a way to express yourself appropriately, not like a 5 year old.
