Re: MLB 12: The Show Team Rankings

Sorry that the lists are bunched together. They won't stay separated once I post them. It is kind of rough on the eyes with them bunched together like this. Oh well.

Hehe Yankees first then Rangers? This is pretty accurate honestly.

Hard times ahead for fans of the Astros...

Thanks for posting this. I've just formatted it a little into columns to make it a bit easier on the eyes if you want to use something like this.

meh, some of this seems kinda weird. Phillies 3rd in batting? Yankees BEHIND them? Yankees 1st in pitching? Astros suck? Okay, the last one is correct but I'm not so sure about the other ones.

I don't wanna insult anyone but The Show's ratings usually suck tbh. I hope KSig will make rosters again, he did a great job with his 2011 rosters. Sure, they aren't perfect but they are way, way, way more accurate than the original rosters.

I think that's true though.. not sure about the Yankees #1 in pitching but nothing wrong with the batting ratings.

Re: MLB 12 The Show Team Rankings (Overall, Hitting, Pitching and Defense)

For those unhappy with the ratings, have you been unhappy with the results in the past? I guess personally I don't care much how each player/team is ranked, as long as the end results make sense. I can't think of too many instances in the past that I've seen something out-of-whack during my franchise.

Quite.

Far, far too much emphasis is put on ratings, much of it is very subjective anyway.

Re: MLB 12 The Show Team Rankings (Overall, Hitting, Pitching and Defense)

These team rankings have always been off in the Show. I think they put too much emphasis on the benches and front-end of the bullpens or something.

Things like the Phillies 3rd in hitting? Rays a worse pitching staff than the Reds?
I don't know about that..

Absolutely. Goes for any other popular team sports game, too

Phillies not #1 in pitching!? How is that possible? Phillies were #1 in almost every single metric, and those they weren't they were top 3. Also, they shouldn't be #3 for hitting, #5 maybe, but 3, not the Phils.

cause they added papelbon.

but yea, i would say phillies one, but the yankees have the best bullpen in baseball, arguably. and the staff is now greatly improved [losing aj burnett will do that to a staff], tho i am sure it is based off Kuroda's NL numbers [will they translate to the AL East or will be Javy Vasquez 2.0?] and the possibilities of what Pineda can become.

The thing is though having an amazing bullpen doesn't hide the flaws of your rotation. Even Burnettless the Yanks aren't a top 3 pitching staff, let alone #1. To me, if you have the best rotation in years then any deficiencies in your bullpen are less significant because that bullpen isn't as important.

To not have the defacto best staff in baseball from 2011 at #1 is disappointing. I know it's only ratings, but it still matters. To try and use the strengths of the bullpen as the reason is also disappointing imo, the Phils rotation were so good, it didn't matter who was in the pen as long as the closer wasn't horrific. Sure the pen didn't rack up all the WAR's and IP's like teams who couldn't get their starter through 6 innings (hello Atlanta), but for their ranking to get dropped because of it, mindblowing.
