i love how oakland is ranked 20th in pitching but had one of the lowest ERA's in baseball. i can see the batting ranking being low b/c they have no offense, but 26th overall? and putting the mariners in front of them....

Not going to bother reading through 9 pages but Russell stated over on MM that these weren't set in stone and in fact they changed a few things with certain teams.

I found this interesting. Baseball Prospectus projects the Orioles to score the third most runs in the majors (tied with the Brewers). They arrived at this projection using the same data on individual players that the MLB '09 producers used to project them as having the worst offense in the majors. I am not saying that they will finish third in the majors in runs but I will eat my hat if they finish in the bottom five.

Already 9(!!!) pages of Team Ranking trash talk?! And you guys are expecting a group of ,let�s say 5 devs who do the rankings, make it perfect for everyone???

I heard one guy talk about player X and what a last half of year he had last season... if they would base it on only a half year those rankings would look ridiculous

Let�s just say it is not an easy job doing ratings for so many players and relax and use the editor.

That's what I was thinking.
