The Twins have the worst, "best" player...I guess that sounds about right.

Huge fan of the Texas Rangers, but I think Colby Lewis is too high. The guys lost a lot of his game in the last couple of years. I'm also interested to see what Rougened Odor's and Joey Gallo's ratings are!😁

Carlos Santana not being a top 10 player on the tribe is just stupid... also noticed cespedes is super overrated

I agree on Santana. http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.asp...lter=&players= in terms of his value on the field.

But his ratings may be there, i.e. huge power, poor defense. One of the things that makes him so valuable, his walk rate, doesn't affect his value in game as much as it does his fWAR outside of the game. When the game comes out check his ratings and I'd assume his power and discipline is there, but the game translates his skills to whatever OVR he has.

Rizzo 84 and Castro 80 with Baez a 77? yikes!

I think Bumgarner is too low, for a Guy who has won the World Series!

I thought they said that they did not take postseason into account.

As I understand it the ratings are initially determined by the real life stats from the last 3 years

2014 - 50% of the total
2013 - 25% of the total
2012 - 25% of the total

Then from there they make tweaks for a few players We also don't know how much specific certain stats are weighted in the final calculation.

But except for those players that may have had their rating tweaked he was ranked using the same system as every other pitcher.
