    WAR Division

    1a) Bakersfield Dustbowls - This team rocks, except I don't see why you wouldn't play Miggy at 3B. People don't care about defense that much, and it opens up 1B for another bat.

    1b) Kodiak KingBallers - Mike Trout isn't 2012 good but he's very good. Dat Dude flashes the leather. Reyes is good too. 3 up the middle players this good rocks.

    3) Team Ramrod - I don't know what to think about Doc, Kuroda is great, and your lineup is off to a nice start. You have a million picks and I'm sure AI is gonna rob some more noobs, so don't be worried.

    4) Pawnee Lil Sebastians - Gonzalez isn't as good as his 2012, I love Greinke, but your offense is going to be pretty weak, especially considering you filled 1B.

    5) Venice Beach Vagabonds - Reddick is probably worse than some OFers still on the board. I believe Desmond is good, but not 2012 good.

    FIP Division

    1) Tuscaloosa Twats - I love Strasburg, and love Ortiz. Scared of Hill, as he could have another 5 WAR season or be DFA'ed by June 1st. This division is not very good.

    2) Las Vegas Shooters - Yadier is a great player, not worthy of going 27th. CC rocks though and made up for it. Craig is solid, not sure I'm as sold on the Shark as others.

    3a) Lafayette Honey Badgers - Beltre was a safe yet unspectacular pick. Cespedes is gonna be very good. Heyward is bleh. I don't care how good your team is your clubhouse is so annoying.

    3b) Santa Monica Monarchs - Hunter is very meh, Hamilton is who knows, Wieters is solid. Cueto is nice too. Decent team all around, nothing horrible, but nothing wows me.

    10,000) Rough and Ready Trill Pandas - No clubhouse, but even if you had one I'm sure it would suck, as this is the worst name for a team ever.


    BABIP Division

    1) Homestead Grays - Smart to go with pitching first in Arlington. Your 1-2 can roll with anyone's. Napoli is hit or miss.

    2a) Beverly Blues Bros - Like the start to your lineup, always like when a team has good, up the middle players early on. Stanton is good too, even if you picked him 20 picks early.

    2b) Charlotte Convicts - Love CK, Fister I'm not as high on as the rest of the guys, Adam Jones is nice. This division has a lot of decent teams yet no great ones.

    2c) Scranton Stranglers - Sale scares me as I cringe every time he pitches. Wainwright is very good. Miley went too early. Konerko is consistent. Another decent squad.

    5) Fiji Islanders - You have three pitchers. They're great but your offense is going to really stink. I'm an offense and defense > pitching person so I'm not going to rate you very highly.

    BA Divison

    1) Greenville Gangsters - Your team is pretty good, which is rare when the GM is someone I've never heard of. I like Butler and Upton, and you have the best pitcher in the game, hands down, pitching in Citi Field.

    2a) Indianapolis Icons - Forced the alliteration a little bit with this team name I see. I like Gallardo and Hellickson more than the rest of PSD I feel, so I'll be rating you higher than most. Also Matthew.Ryan.Kemp.

    2b) Roswell Invaders - I dislike Harrison as an ace quite a bit. He's just not that good. Braun and A-Gon on the other hand, are that good.

    4) Frankfurt Frylocks - CarGo is going to struggle in Marlins Park badly. Fielder is as consistent a star as you'll find, which is vital in these. Lawrie at DH just makes no sense.

    5) Myrtle Beach Hurricanes - This team isn't very good. E5 is a favorite of mine, but it's obviously a risky pick. Lohse isn't very good, and Starlin is a wild card.


    Wins Division

    1) State College Sanduskies - Your lineup obviously rocks. Zobrist isn't as good as nerds think, but is way better than everyone else thinks. Thoughts on this ranking? And for what it's worth this is the best division in the game, EASILY. At least 4 of you would win the BABIP division.

    2a) Tokyo Drift - Cutch and Beltran rock, I'm not as in love with Santana as everyone else I guess. You don't have any pitching so that might be hard to come back from.

    2b) Portland Pimpmobile - I like 3/4 of this team, just don't like Goldschmidt much at all, he's a .750 OPS bat vs RHP.

    4a) Compton Kitty Cats - Johnson and Morrow scare me, as both are wild cards from the health side. Should get some innings eaters for your back end. Tulo and Zimmerman is obviously the best left side of the infield in the game though.

    4b) Mianus Pain - Future Dodger Cole Hamels is a stud, and CJ Wilson is nice as a two. Headley is a good player but not a 7 WAR player, although I like Utley to be worth 3-4 wins even if he does miss time.

    Can't do my own division, but my team, El Paso and Hartford are good, while the other two aren't.

    WAR Division

    1) Venice Beach Vagabonds - I feel like this whole division is on a pitcher's strike but have intensely good lineups. You have a really solid lineup led of course by David Wright, a very solid defense, and then James Shields who is very sufficient to lead your Rotation. Not to mention you have a **** load of wiggle room for cap

    2) Bakersfield Dustbowls - I'm personally a guy who believes pitching is probably the most important key to a winning team, and you have none yet. However, you're offense is so good that it makes me want to throw up.

    3) Kodiak Kingballers - More like 2b, your offense is on a very similar spectrum to Bakersfield, but as I said about them the no pitching thing scares me a bit

    4) Team Ramrod - Love the Rotation, however the lineup has it's question marks for sure. Ruiz as an offensive corner stone just doesn't sound very good from a verbal perspective, however it's not that bad. This team could be #1 5 rounds from now too.

    5) Pawnee Lil Sebastians - Very close to Ramrod, actually all of the teams in this division are very, very close. I like the rotation, however, I'm not entirely a Gio fan, I don't think he will continue to be that good, and Greinke has consistency issues around him, but I'm personally a fan. As for the lineup, Bruce is one of those guys I would hate to put a lot of confidence in. He always seems to be that guy that is underwhelming, and has issues with K's. Tex is fine.

    FIP Division

    1) Las Vegas Shooters - Wish you'd have a complete clubhouse, but based on what I see I love the rotation. I'm a big fan of Samardzija and of course CC is CC. Yadier is a very good player, but again, I'm not entirely sure I'd feel totally comfortable with him being the best player on my team. Craig is good and all, but also has his question marks.

    2) Tuscaloosa Twats - Strasburg is the man obviously, and so is big Papi. Aaron Hill was a 6WAR player last season, however, it was his first season of relevance in a while, as VRP said, he's a guy who could be great or DFA'd by June 1st. Dickey is another guy who is a big question mark, his mechanics looked rather good though, so he could probably pull a Cliff Lee kind of move.

    3) Santa Monica Monarchs - Solid lineup, but Cueto is one of those guys with big uncertanties around him too. I think if you had a good #2 behind him you'd be #1 right now in the division, however it's not comforting seeing him there by himself.

    4) Lafayette Honey Badgers - Lineup is the best in the division, hands down. Hwever Jon Lester has HUGE consistency problems, and Cespedes was a rookie who could very well enter a sophomore slump for all we know. Also picking both of your corner outfielders already, easily the deepest position in baseball, could hurt you later on.

    5) Trill Pandas - No Clubhouse

    BABIP Division

    1) Homestead Grays - nice start to the rotation, and I'm a Napoli fan, so the lineup looks pretty good to me too. Not much else to say really lol.

    2) Fiji Islanders - Contrary to VRP, I'm a very pitching oriented guy, I love this rotation, 3 high end starters. However, your offense really is going to stink if you don't make some blue chip selections in the next 3-4 rounds.

    3) Charlotte Convicts - I like both guys in your rotation a lot. I've bee a Fister fan for a few years actually, even as a reliever. Jones is a solid start, but you need to make some crucial picks as well.

    4) Beverley Blues Bros - Your offense has 3 of my favorite players outside of the Red Sox players ironically. However, your lack of pitching could hurt. Every pitcher left has major flaws as a #1.

    5) Scranton Stranglers - Wainwright should absolutely be #1 in the rotation. I'm not totally sold on Miley or Sale personally, and Konerko is also a big question due to age.


    I'll do the Other league as well a little later.


    lol, small kid got tripped by a tuba player

    Power Rankings

    Sabernerds

    WAR Division

    Team Ramrod – Well-built all around team. Solid batting core of Ruiz – Kinsler – Gordon, with a good pitching staff of Kuroda – Bumgarner – Carpenter. Not many issues here.

    Bakersfield Bustbowls – Amazing lineup. Only one pitcher so far though, will need to get some depth here, but Parker is a decent start.

    Kodiak KingBallers – Very nice lineup, and of course Trout is amazing. However, pitching is mediocre at best – Buehrle/Kennedy isn’t a very imposing 1/2.

    Pawnee Lil Sebastians – Best pitching in the division, by far. Compared to rest of division though offense is pretty weak.

    Venice Beach Vagabonds – Wright/Desmond/Reddick all had great season but will they be able to repeat their success? Shields is a good anchor.


    FIP Division

    Tuscaloosa Twats – Incredibly pitching combo of Strasburg/Dickey/Moore, and Ortiz/Hill are very good bats.

    Santa Monica Monarchs – Cueto/Jackson is an above average 1/2, Wieters-Hunter-Hamilton is a good core of batters.

    Lafayette Honey Badgers – Decent team offensively, but is Lester able to be an ace anymore?

    Rough and Ready Trill Pandas – No clubhouse. Suspect GM combo. Terrible team name. F- for not showing up.


    BABIP Division

    Beverley Blues Bros – Smexy offense. Best team in the division right now.

    Homestead Grays – Hernandez is an absolute beast and Darvish was alright last year.
    Sandoval/Napoli need help in the offense however.

    Scranton Stranglers – Wainwright/Sale/Miley is a trio of sabermetric sexiness, but offense needs work.

    The FIJI islanders – Price/Cain/Peavy are each good pitchers but where are the batters?

    Charlotte Convicts – Clubhouse very incomplete.



    Note: I did these in a hurry, so don't worry if I ranked you team last, there's still hope for you (unless you're the trill pandas of course, they just suck)

    WAR Division:
    Team Ramrod - That pitching staff is just scary good and I love your lineup. Kinsler/Gordon are two studs and Rizzo might break out this year. Very nice core.

    Pawnee Lil Sebastians - Again, dat pitching . Your lineup isn't my favorite so far as Teixeira isn't as good as he once was and Bruce is a tad overrated IMO, but it's good enough to keep you in plenty of games with that pitching you have.

    Bakersfield Dustbowls - That lineup is scary, scary good but your pitching won't cut it IMO. Parker is nice, but he's not an ace yet. That hitting is just insane though, especially at Fenway.

    Kodiak Kingballers - Trout/Reyes/Phillips will be a great combo, especially since I think Jose and Brandon will both have bounceback years. Your pitching isn't going to overpower anyone by any means, but you have two steady guys anchoring your staff.

    Venice Beach Vagabonds - I think this team is pretty good, but it just isn't good enough IMO. I'm not a fan of Desmond & Reddick as I think they played over their ability for much of last year. That pitching is pretty good though, Shields and McCarthy are a nice duo.

    FIP Division:
    Tuscaloosa Twats - Love the pitching and you've got two nice offensive cornerstones in Papi & hill. Obviously this depends on how the rest of your draft goes, but I can see this team ending up in first.

    Las Vegas Shooters - Not in love with this team but this is a pretty weak division so far. CC and Shark are a good 1/2, but not an incredible one. Craig, Yadi and Rios are a good 3 players to have on offense.

    Lafayette Honey Badgers - I love your offense so far. Heyward and Cespedes are gonna be major studs for a long time, and Beltre is obviously great. Good defense between these three too, but your pitching is gonna fall short IMO. Lester is not an ace, he would probably be better as a number 2 in a rotation where he doesn't have to be the "guy".

    Santa Monica Monarchs - This team is pretty meh. I don't like Hunter/Hamilton that much, but Wieters is pretty good. Cueto is a decent ace, but he's not that consistent, and Edwin is not a number 2. We'll see how this team ends up, though.

    Trill Pandas - http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3xo71XVVE1rn6ys0.gif

    BABIP Division:
    Scranton Stranglers - I love this team. 2nd best rotation in the division, but Pauly and Ethier are great cornerstones to the offense. Very well rounded squad, Waino and Sale are two aces and Miley is my ROY pick.

    Charlotte Convicts - Kershaw/Fister is a deadly 1/2 punch and you having Pagan will allow Jones to move to a corner OF spot where he would be a plus defender. I'm a huge Asdrubal fan, and I think this team could be very, very good going down the stretch.

    Fiji Islanders - By far best pitching in the division, but the offense blows so far. Morneau is a shell of his former self at best, and there aren't many options left for elite protection in the lineup. That pitching is enough to keep you in games, though. Best pitching in the game so far.

    Beverly Blues Bros. - Offense is above average, but Jaime is not an ace. The lack of a great pitching staff is going to hurt your chances at the playoffs, but who knows with that great offense.

    Homestead Grays - Decent team so far, I'm not so high on Darvish but I can't deny he's a good #2. Sandoval and Napoli obviously have concerns with their health which could hurt you.

    I'll do the other league later.

    BA Division
    1. Frankfurt - Very, very, very good offense but everything else is poop. Mcdonald should fair alright in Marlins Stadium though.

    2. Greenville - Good all around team. Good bats, Good D (minus Butler), best pitcher in the game but Cap and Beck are a bit iffy but it is Citi field.

    3. Roswell - Meh team to me. Braun and Gonzo are a great 3-4 and Murphy's a solid guy ahead of them but everything else is meh. The pitching is average mainly because 2012 was about each of their best years.

    4. Indianapolis - Another meh team. Good OF and I like Hellboy and Perez but no consistency with Vargas and Gallardo and all 3 OF have injury concerns recently.

    5. Myrtle Beach - Poop. 5 complimentary bats and a pitcher coming off a pretty average year and a pitcher coming off a very smoke and mirrors year. GODney shouldn't have been taken now.

    Take - I really don't like this division at all.

    Wins Division
    ?. Tokyo - An ok offense with Hanley and Santana needing to show they have talent and Chris Davis showing that he's good now that he's getting full playing time. Can't complain about the OF and you are using pitchers similar to the way I am in a more hitter's park. Like that.

    ?. Portland - I still think Dan Haren is a solid #1 and could still be an anchor. The offense and defense have all really solid bats and really solid gloves. Speed is there as well. I pretty solid team on the offense and defensive side.

    ?. State College - The more I look at Fowler, the more I kinda hate my pick but Wrigley is still a bit of a hitter's park. Fowler does also have the ability to get on base. The offense and pitching doesn't wow but the groundballers with Zobi and Danny up the middle will help prevent lots of runs.

    ?. Mianus - I love the rotation. Homer is coming into his own finally too. Utley needs to stay healthy. Mccann has to show he's not on the decline. It's an ok start to an offense but clearly this team has the best rotation in this division.

    ? - Compton - Second best rotation but holy injury concern. All 3 starters missed a good chunk of time this season and it wasn't their first time missing time either. Solid offense and defense too but like the rotation a bunch of nagging injury concerns with Tulo, Zim, and even Weeks has a history.

    Take - Best division in the League and possibly the game right now. All 5 could be 1 or 2 in other divisions. One bad move could drop a team to 5 but one good move could bump them to 1. Basically I have no idea how to rank it.

    RBI Division
    1. Jamaica - The offense is pretty much disgusting. Petco Schmetco, homeruns will be flying out of this park. The OF D is lollable though especially in a big park. Latos and Marcum in Petco is nice though.

    2a. Hartford - Solid all around team except for the defense probably. Good rotation especially for Coors. Someone utilizing pitching advantages again. The defense worries me though especially up the middle. Not having a player at 2B and SS may hurt your run prevention.

    2b. El Paso - I like the middle of the order and good OBP guys in front with some speed. Pretty meh D and an ok start to the Rotation.

    4. Camden - Clubby not completely updated but I can say I don't like the rotation. 1-2-3 of the offense and defnese is pretty pretty good though.

    5. Staten Island - Sorta gross team. Altuve is ok but Pence and Trumbo are boom or bust but even their booms aren't that loud. You have an old rotation that may not hold together. I like and hope Halladay bounces back, Phillies fan withstanding, but I'm just not sure. Definitely a meh team.

    Take - A solid division with 3 potential playoff teams. Jamaica is clearly the best team so far but Hartford and El Paso aren't far behind. Camden is still somewhat in the mix. Staten Island is under water... Too soon?

    OLD TIMERS DIVISION

    Batting Average Division


    Indianapols Icons:

    Hitting: Nick Markakis has never been the same, Ellisbury wont repeat that one awesome year and has injury concerns. Kemp is great. Really liked the Perez pick. Pretty good so far.

    B

    Pitching: Hellickson is a reverse Javier Vazquez, Gallardo and Varga are both up and down. Dont see a ton of upside.

    C-

    Defense: Not looking up stats for everyone, just going from memory the defense looks solid

    B+

    Overall: Just a solid team. Doesn't wow me but I dont think you really whiffed on any picks.

    B-


    Frankfurt Frylocks:

    Hitting: You have Brett Lowrie at DH

    A-

    Pitching: Hey, Brett Lowrie is your DH

    D-

    Defense: Why is Brett Lowrie your DH?

    D+

    Overall: Brett Lowrie is your DH

    C-


    Greenville Gangsters:

    Hitting: Considerable upside. I dont think Ludwick will have as good of a year. Really dont know what to think of BJ Upton anymore. You dont have alot of surefire bats expect Butler. The rest have had varied performances.

    B+

    Pitching: Verlander is cool. Yuck at Capuano I really dont think he'll repeat this year. Beckett has his ups and downs.

    C+


    Defense: Butler should be your DH. Rest of D is great

    A

    Overall: Clear winner of this division

    B+


    Roswell Invaders:

    Hitting: Murphy's splits are scary bad, Morales is just ok. Braun+Adrian is a solid 3-4. Meh to me.

    Pitching: I like Garza. Hammel has spiked in so many categories cant help but be wary. Harrison is okay I guess

    C

    Defense: No real weakpoints here.

    B+

    Overall: Average. Nothing really stands out except your 3-4

    C+


    Myrtle Beach Hurricanes:

    Hitting: Yikes. Picked alot of players who have spiked this year. Middlebrooks took a nosedive. Not confident in any of these bats except maybe Castro. Considering the number of early picks you spent on offense this hurts your chances ALOT.

    D+

    Pitching: Two pitchers coming off years they wont repeat. Having only 2 pitchers at this point is scaryyyy. Boo. Nice closer, he obviously wont be this good again but solid.

    C-

    Defense: Meh. Average

    C-

    Overall: Picked too many players who spiked this year

    D+

    __________________________________________________ _____





    Wins Division

    Tokyo Drift:

    Hitting: Santana, Hanley, and Davis all worry me. Santana less so than the others but Hanley hasn't been good in 2 years and Davis tailed off only to come back in sept/oct. Solid but not without question marks. If everyone on your team is firing this offense is explosive.

    B+


    Pitching: Couple of guys that you know what you are going to get out of. With your hitting this is acceptable.

    C+

    Defense: Davis is bad, Hanley is Bad, Beltran is just ok now. Maybin is very good at a premium pos

    C+

    Overall: Great offense plagued by if's. Solid pitching and average defense.

    B


    Portland Pimpmobiles:

    Hitting: Aoki is cool. Goldy's splits are scaryyyyyyyy bad. Harper+Longo is great. Grandal should be a good hitting C. Rollins decent hitter for a SS. I like it.

    A


    Pitching: I really think Haren is done. Declining velocity and K rates with injury concerns. Fiers was a nice pickup.

    C-


    Defense: Harper isn't THAT good in CF...rest of defense is rock solid.

    A-

    Overall: You will win with division with the right pitching selections

    B+


    State College Sanduskies:


    Hitting: I like it. Good pick with Fowler to leadoff. Rest of the lineup doesn't have a weak bat

    A-


    Pitching: High GB rates with good infielders. I see what you're doing here and it's cool. Not much in the way of question marks here

    B

    Defense: Infield good, outfield meh. Infield matters more because of the pitchers you've taken...

    B+

    Overall: Lest question marks of any team in this division. They are the frontrunners

    A-


    Mianus Pain:

    Hitting: Utley+Mccann both question marks. Headley is nice. Aybar's OBP at leadoff is iffy. Lack of OBP at top of lineup will be a problem for this team.

    C-

    Pitching: Best pitching in the division All proven ML starters with track record of success.

    B+

    Defense: Headley is great. Other than that, meh

    C+


    Overall: Too many question marks in the lineup, lack of OBP.

    C+


    Compton Kitty Cats

    Hitting: All of your bats have question marks attached to them except maybe Tulo. You definitely have elite talent though.

    B

    Pitching: Morrow might be your best pitcher, really like him. Josh Johnson I dont think is that big of a question mark as long as you dont expect him to be a surefire ace. Hanson has the potential but just haven't put it together. Again, elite talent loaded with questions

    B

    Defense: Outside of weeks, looks excellent.

    A


    Overall: This team COULD be the best in this division honestly. Just so so many what if's though. In another division you could be the easy winner.

    B+

    1. State College Sanduskies: A-
    2. Compton Kitty Cats: B+

    5. Mianus Pain: C+



    __________________________________________________


    RBI's Division


    El Paso Diablos:

    Hitting: Every single bat you've gotten is rock solid. DeJesus isn't what he used to be and same with ARod but they are still damn good

    A

    Pitching: In my eyes Scherzer is an ace, I like him that much. Medlen isn't this good but for sure a nice start. I'm homo for Romo.

    B+


    Defense: Average. Dont think Cano is what his UZR says.

    C


    Overall: Great hitting, solid start to the rotation. Nothing not to like here. Stay the course and the division is yours.

    A-



    Camden Biggums:

    Way to not update the clubby.



    Staten Island Dreamchasers
    :

    Hitting: Loaded with either declining players or those loaded with them ????'s. Outside of Pujols dont really like it. Manny Macacho is bad

    D-


    Pitching: Halladay wont be the same and Dempster is okay.

    B-


    Defense: Seems average. Pujols and Manny are pretty good. Altuve is terrible.

    C-

    Overall: Sorry man, that lineup is just brutal.

    D+


    Hartford Whalers:

    Hitting: Aramis is really under-appreciated. Not crazy about Hart. Great OBP at top of order for Aramis+Victor.

    B+


    Pitching: Lee still has alot of life left and Cahill is rock solid. Not too excited about Harrell but I really like the 1/2.

    B

    Defense: Not too sure what to think here. Hart is bad and Aramis is up and down. Span is really good, though.

    C+


    Overall: Solid all-around team. Could shoot up with right moves

    B


    Jamaica J-Bay's:

    Hitting: Hanigan's OBP well suited for leadoff. Really dont like Granderson at 3. His bat is a limp noodle vs LHP(2012 it wasn't bad, career numbers tell a different story). Everyone in your lineup has great pop except Hanigan. Great start here

    A-


    Pitching: Latos and Marcum both solid know what you're going to get type guys. Thats all you need with petco. Like it with your hitting.

    B

    Defense: Granderson is bad, Bautista is bad, Belt is meh. Morse isn't great either. Dustin in your lone good fielder. This hurts your team.

    D+

    Overall: Interesting approach going bat heavy in petco. The OF defense in petco holds you back from being the surefire division winner.

    B+

    FIP Division

    Puerto Rico Trill Pandas
    Lafayette Honey Badgers
    Santa Monica Monarchs
    Tuscaloosa Twats
    Las Vegas Shooters

    Puerto Rico

    Lineup: Carroll has no pop, but he does get on base at a good clip. Not sure I like Frazier in the 2-hole. I'd probably put Victorino there since they have similar OBPs and Vic is a better baserunner. Posey's awesome, though I think you have the right idea in trying to deal him to address your roster issues. Howard is still a question mark in my eyes, but assuming he recovers from his injury and you find a lefty masher to platoon with him, he's fine. Reynolds is okay and should probably be that platoon mate. Infante's solid.

    Defense: You can only hide one of Howard/Reynolds, but Posey, Vic, and Infante are good gloves, and the others are okay.

    Rotation: Zimmermann still needs to prove he can maintain performance through a full season, but I'm sure he will. I know Vogelsong has put together two quality years now, but I have a hard time trusting him with the Cell as your home park. I've given up on Nolasco completely as anything other than a middling starter.

    Bullpen: Johnson and Belisle aren't flashy, but they are effective.

    Overall: You inherited a mess and while I think you've made some solid picks, I don't see you getting into the playoffs unless you manage to pull off a great trade or two.

    Lafayette

    Lineup: You don't have one set up yet, but I like the collection of hitters you have, for the most part. Good mix of power and OBP, with a little speed for good measure.

    Defense: Beltre and Heyward are great, and I think Cespedes is better than that ugly UZR. Lowrie is solid. Duda shouldn't kill you at first base. Jaso isn't very good behind the plate though if I'm remembering correctly.

    Rotation: I like Lester as a bounceback candidate. Lynn faded badly down the stretch but looks like a solid starter. Anderson is good, but that injury history gives me pause. Some boom or bust potential with this group.

    Bullpen: Nathan was quite impressive for a guy coming back from major arm issues at his age. I have no doubt you'll fill the rest of the pen ably.

    Overall: Definitely a playoff contender, should be up there with Tuscaloosa for the division crown.

    Santa Monica

    Lineup: No lineup set. I have to say I'm not a fan of this group though, especially in Target Field. Hamilton is great, but he's also a significant injury risk; if and when he goes down, nobody else really strikes fear in me. You might have an entire lineup of sub-.400 SLG outside of Hambone.

    Defense: Potentially the best fielding team in the redraft. All well above average. If run prevention was your aim, you succeeded admirably.

    Rotation: Cueto's really come into his own and deserves to be considered a frontline starter at this point. Jackson and Wandy are solid innings eater, and with your defense and park, that's all you really need.

    Bullpen: Chapman's awesome, assuming he doesn't regress in terms of control. Hell, he's talented enough that his walk rate could double and he'd still be a good reliever.

    Overall: It's hard to find high-end bats at this point in the proceedings, but it's crucial for you if you want to make the playoffs.

    Tuscaloosa

    Lineup: Definitely the weakest I've seen from the JD/Twitchy/BBCHWS trio. It's not awful or anything, just too many question marks for my liking. Hill scares the crap out of me with his Jekyll and Hyde ways, Ortiz is 37 and coming off an Achilles injury, Youk's in decline and has always been injury-prone, and I'm not sure we can expect Simmons to hit as well as he did given his minor league numbers. If everything breaks right, this lineup will hit, but I'm skeptical.

    Defense: Strong up the middle and decent on the corners. No complaints.

    Rotation: Almost certainly the best in the redraft, although I'm a huge Moore fanboy so I might be a little biased there. Strasburg is awesome. I'm not sure Dickey can repeat his 2012 but he's strung together three quality seasons now. Moore is going to be special. Lincecum was a great gamble as your 4. If he rebounds, you're golden; if he implodes, so what, he's your 4. And you can always stick him in the pen to great effect.

    Bullpen: Heart issues are scary, but so is Jansen's ability. Sorry I'm not sorry that I stole McGee.

    Overall: Rotation is more than good enough to compensate for potential offensive shortcomings. The division frontrunner as of now, and most likely on the short list of title contenders, as usual.

    Las Vegas

    Lineup: Pretty solid, though you're going to have a hard time finding a decent leadoff man at this stage of the game. I like Craig a lot. You're going to get flak for Melky with the steroids thing, and deservedly so. I'm also not totally sure we can expect a repeat performance from Molina, and Rios is Jekyll and Hyde. Lucroy's probably not a .380 wOBA talent but I do think he'll hit well. Cruz looks like a one-year wonder to me. Venable is underrated. Barney sucks but you knew that.

    Defense: Barney and Venable are quality, Cruz might be, the rest are decent enough.

    Rotation: CC's recent injury may hurt you here, but if healthy he's obviously an ace. Hate you for taking Shark and Estrada is a good 3. Both are just breaking out in their late 20's though, which some people may bring up as a not entirely invalid criticism.

    Bullpen: Jason Grilli.

    Overall: Not bad at all for a first time RDer. Quite a few players whose perception could go either way, so I'm honestly not sure where to rank you, but here goes...

    1. Tuscaloosa
    2. Lafayette
    3. Vegas
    4. Santa Monica
    5. Puerto Rico

    Wins Division:

    Mianus - 2 Lefty aces in your rotation, decent 3. Line up looks good, but has injury/decline concerns and I don't think Headly will repeat, Colvin outside of Coors...eh. Very very good defense. Nice start to the bullpen. You can look to trade one of Hamels or Wilson for a more established bat, might make your line-up scary scary.

    State College - I built you a great team KJ - Pitching is decent, good GB rates, no true ace which will hurt come voting time. Line-up looks very good. Defense in the OF is Lulzy, in the IF it's amazing. Bullpen looks great as well.

    Compton - Rotation looks good even though I am not a fan of Hanson or Ubaldo. Your line-up looks great, but injury concerns are a plenty. Defense is great. Not sure if not updated or no bullpen.

    Tokyo - No stats and I'm too lazy, judging by the names, the line-up looks decent. Not a fan of Hanley hitting third until he proves he deserves that. I don't think Davis will repeat. IF defense is non-existent. OF defense is meh. I actually like the rotation and the closer is good.

    Portland - I wanted Aoki, Goldschmidt needs a platoon partner, do not like Harper hitting 3rd. Love Longo. Yasmani GrandLoL. I love Jimmy as well. Overall good line-up with potential to be great. Defense is the best I've seen so far. I like Haren, even though he had a lot of back problems and he had a bad season. Not sure I buy Fiers as a #2. I like the bullpen so far a lot.

    Rankings:

    Portland
    Tokyo
    State College
    Compton
    Mianus

    Very difficult to rank this division. I think there's no clear leader here, it's gonna come down to the wire here. No team is out of it.

    FIP Division


    Puerto Rico
    Lineup: Carroll isn't anything special, but he gets on-base at a decent clip. Outside of Posey, who I absolutely love, there is not much to like here but it's not your fault. Trill Panda's dealt you a lousy hand.
    Defense: Infante, Victorino and Posey can all flash the leather. However, I'm not a fan of Carroll at SS or Howard at 1B.
    Rotation: I really like Zimmermann and I think he'll be very good next year. Vogelsong and Nolasco are decent, not the best rotation but it's also not the worst.
    Bullpen: Johnson and Belisle are both solid, the bullpen could very well be the strength of this team when it's finished.
    Overall: Not much to like here, I think you need to seriously consider doing a couple of trades in which you can deal some of your talent (Posey, Zimmermann) for multiple pieces. Don't see you making the playoffs but you can thank Brewerboy and drose for that.

    Lafayette
    Lineup: I like most of the pieces you have. Beltre, Heyward and Cespedes. Lowrie is also a good hitter when he manages to stay healthy which is never.
    Defense: You have 2 elite defenders in Beltre and Heyward which is always good, I believe Cespedes is a much better defender than his defensive metrics indicate plus he has a cannon of an arm. Being a Red Sox fan I know Lowrie doesn't have much range or the arm to play SS, but he's passable.
    Rotation: It's incredible you got Lester when you did, I know he's coming off a bad year but he's still a solid top of the rotation lefty and a prime candidate to bounce back. Lynn was solid this year but tired a bit down the stretch and Anderson has some serious red flags. You need to fill out your 4-5 with some inning eaters.
    Bullpen: Nathan is a solid start.
    Overall: There's a lot to like with this team but the rotation leaves a lot to be desired. Could be a playoff contender depending on how you draft the rest of the way. Also, I refuse to ever give you feedback if you ever use those annoying colors/scheme in your clubhouse.

    Santa Monica
    Lineup: Hamilton can mash, Hunter is still good regardless of his age and Wieters is a nice young bat but other than that there's not much to like here. Think you could've gotten somebody much better than Viciedo as your DH.
    Defense: Couldn't be any more obvious that the best thing about this team is the defense. The outfield defense is amazing, plus Loney/Callaspo is a good start for the infield.
    Rotation: Cueto is really underrated, he's a very good pitcher. Jackson and Wandy are decent options as a #2-3 especially at Target Field.
    Bullpen: Chapman is absolutely filthy and Perkins is a solid lefty who has had 2 very good years in a row. Very good start to the bullpen.
    Overall: Looks like you built your team on defense. Rotation is above average, bullpen is off to a nice start but the lineup leaves a lot to be desired. Don't see the Monarch's competing for a playoff spot anytime soon unless you can pull of a good # of moves.

    Tuscaloosa
    Lineup: Aside from Ortiz, who you stole from me, this lineup is very boom or bust. Can playing Youk at 1B keep him healthy and let him be the middle of the order hitter he once was? Can Hill repeat his 2012 season? Was Carpenters 2012 a fluke? Lineup could be decent enough or it can absolutely suck.
    Defense: Youk and Hill make up a solid right side of the infield, however, I'm not sure about Simmons or Carpenter on the left side. From what I know without looking it up, Cain's pretty good at CF.
    Rotation: You obviously made it a point to go pitching first, arguably the best rotation in all the redraft. Strasburg is a beast, people can doubt Dickey all they want but it's been 3 years in a row now, Moore as a #3 is very good and Lincecum as a #4 is just insane. SOLID.
    Bullpen: I don't know when Jansen is expected back, but I do know that he is absolutely filthy. Thornton is consistent. Good start.
    Overall: The way I see things, this is a serious contender. It only takes 1 run to win a game if you have good pitching/defense and a bullpen to hold the lead. The question here is, is your lineup good enough? Depends on how you fill the rest of the holes.

    Vegas
    Lineup: I like Craig and Yadier (even though you took him way too early). Lucroy won't be a .378 wOBA next year but he'll still be good and Rios is very hard to predict. He can either be really good or he can a year off and absolutely stink it up at the plate. Overall it's a decent lineup.
    Defense: Yadi's the best defensive C in all of baseball. Rios, Venable and Barney are all pretty good with the glove. I'm not sure about Cruz at SS though.
    Rotation: Sabathia is an ace, Shark is coming off a very good year and Lewis is a solid back of the rotation pitcher. Not sure of Estrada as your #3 though. Overall, good job.
    Bullpen: Well you have nothing so far and the top arms are dropping like flies, you'll have to do some serious work with your bullpen.
    Overall: A much better team than I expected you to draft but you are still #2 behind Tuscaloosa.

    1. Tuscaloosa
    2. Vegas

    BABIP Division

    Beverly
    Lineup: Could be a very pesky lineup with guys like Jackson, Andrus and Jennings in it. Stanton is one of if not my favorite hitter in all of baseball, light-tower power. I like it.
    Defense: Wow. Amazing job. That's all I can really say, there's nothing I can really complain about since every guy you have is very very good defensively at his position.
    Rotation: Think the pitching is what will prevent this team from going far. Garcia is nice but he's never pitched over 200 innings. I'm not a fan of Nova or Porcello, Westbrook is solid as a #4 though. Think you should seriously explore acquiring a pitcher via trade.
    Bullpen: Davis is decent. Good start I guess.
    Overall: There's so much to like about this team. One of my favorites. This team could be a serious threat to win it all if you could acquire a good pitcher. Definitely a playoff contender as of right now.

    Homestead
    Lineup: Lots to like here. Absolutely love Gardner plus Werth, Sandoval and Napoli are all solid. Joyce/Gomes platoon is very good and Profar will be a stud. Like what you've done.
    Defense: Outfield defense looks good, infield has the makings of a decent defensive infield. Can't complain.
    Rotation: Felix and Darvish are studs, not a fan of Gee and I don't really think Ogando has what it takes to be a full-time starter.
    Bullpen: Venters is a solid start, let's see who else you pick up going forward.
    Overall: First of all, I hate that you've completely raped my lists right before I was going to pick most of these guys. Very good team, well-balanced.

    Charlotte
    Lineup: Jones and Cabrera are decent, not much to like after that.
    Defense: It's decent, nothing spectacular but it gets the job done.
    Rotation: Kershaw is a stud, Fister is very good/underrated and Floyd/Leake are a good #3-4 combo. Good job.
    Bullpen: Putz and Mariano is a very good start.
    Overall: Can't really rank or give you a grade because your clubhouse is not up to date. You need more hitting.

    Fiji
    Lineup: Ross is a platoon guy, Morneau is a wild card and Cruz/Ike are decent. This lineup is very boom or bust. If everything clicks it is good enough, if it doesn't, things could get very ugly.
    Defense: Not great, not bad, it's decent.
    Rotation: Definitely what is keeping this team afloat. Very solid rotation rotation, one of the best in the redraft. Cain and Price are both studs, plus Peavy is a solid #3. Volquez and Hughes as a #4-5 are decent.
    Bullpen: Papelbon is solid, Walden is decent and things really clicked for Miller last season, he was filthy.
    Overall: Pretty good team, you might want to trade Peavy for a middle of the order hitter or two good hitters.

    Scranton
    Lineup: Ethier and Konerko are good, Kubel is decent and I've always been a Daniel Murphy fan.
    Defense: It's okay.
    Rotation: Wainwright and Sale are both solid, don't think Miley will repeat his season but Doubront should be better and has good stuff.
    Bullpen: Bailey is a question mark, Boggs is solid.
    Overall: Pretty balanced team, not spectacular, but it's decent.

    1. Homestead
    2. Beverly
    3. Fiji
    4. Scranton

    RBI Division:

    1> Jamaica - Ridiculous lineup. pretty lolzy defense. Solid BP but i like different numbers for BPs, no biggie. The reason this team is better is because the pitching, at least the top 3, is a better start than El Paso. Top two teams, but Jamaica is top dog.

    2> El Paso - Ridiculous lineup as well. Meh Defense. Pretty solid back end of the BP. Rotation is the meh. Some potential there but a lot of streakiness. 2nd fiddle right now.

    3> Hartford- Solid lineup. Solid Defense. Good rotation. eh, on the BP. I like the Rotation a lot BUT the lineup is only solid. I don't buy "pitching wins championships." The reason is any pitcher could get hot in the playoffs, just like any batter could get hot. I'd trust a deadlier lineup over one deadly pitcher. 3rd ranked team here but could be top 2 in other places.

    4> Camden - I like it but it is pretty meh all around. Alright rotation, alright Defense, solid bullpen and a decent lineup. I like Votto and Montero. I like Berkman but don't trust him. everyone else compliments but is on the meh category.

    5> Staten Island - Still treading water.

    Wins Division

    1. Compton Kitty Cats

    Offense: My lineup is sexy I'm not gonna lie.

    Starting Pitching: 1-3 have injury concerns but are good pitchers. 4 has high upside but was **** last season. 5 has nice upside.

    Relief Pitching: My relief pitching is probably the best ever.

    Defense: My only weakness is at second base which isnt a very important position defense wise.

    Suggestions: Keep being awesome

    2. State College Sanduskies

    Offense: Your 1-4 is pretty good, then there is a huge drop off.

    Starting Pitching: You don't have your ballpark listed so I have no idea how good your rotation can be. It's decent 1-5. If you are in an extremely pitcher friendly park then its above average.

    Relief Pitching: Your bullpen is good, not as good as mine, but still pretty good.

    Defense: Your OF defense isnt very good. Your infield defense is pretty good though

    Suggestions: List you ballpark

    3. Tokyo Drift

    Offense: I like your lineup. I would probably rearrange it and put McCutchen in the 2 spot.

    Starting Pitching: Its solid, you dont really have that one dominate guy though

    Relief Pitching: Your bullpen is pretty good, but you listed saves under the stats so I'm tempted to throw you at the bottom of the division.

    Defense: Moving to LF will likely help out McCutchen. Having Bourn will help everyone. I would say your OF defense is average to above average. Your infield defense is ****.

    Suggestions: Get rid of the saves listed in your stats. Rearrange your lineup

    4. Portland Pimpmobiles

    Offense: Rob Brantly is going to be your starting catcher for the first 50 games of the season so good luck with that. I see Carter and Dirks regressing. Your 1-4 is good, but after that its shaky

    Starting Pitching: I like Haren but he doesnt sound like he is going to be healthy. The rest of your rotation is solid.

    Relief Pitching: You have three guys that have a lot of upside. McGee and O'Day are nice at the end of the pen.

    Defense: Your defense is good all around, except in the one position it doesn't really matter.

    Suggestions: Stop looking at peoples lists, and maybe trade Grandal to a stupid GM (see LASportsFan1996) because Brantly isnt that good to be an everyday guy

    5. Puerto Rico Trill Pandas

    Offense: I would probably put Victorino 2nd, Frazier 5th, and Trumbo 6th because Trumbo cant walk to save his life. You have a solid lineup.

    Starting Pitching: Your rotation is decent, like Tokyo you dont have that one dominate guy.

    Relief Pitching: Your bullpen is good, not as good as mine, but still pretty good.

    Defense: Its good that you threw Howards and Reynolds gloves in the trash. Your outfield defense is very good so far. The left side of the infield, which is the important part, is meh.

    Suggestions: Get Trumbo out of the 4-5 spots.

    Suggestions: This one is for DaSox, how about linking to the right team

    6. Mianus Pain

    Offense: First off having Gose as your leadoff hitter probably isnt a good thing. Gentry isnt as good as his numbers suggest. Utley hasnt been able to stay healthy for the last three years. McCann is coming off a horrible year. LaHair is garbage versus lefthanders. Colvin is horrible outside of Coors. Basically too much has to go right for your offense to be good.

    Starting Pitching: Your 1-2 is very good. 3-4 is good. 5 has nice upside.

    Relief Pitching: I dont get why you have Furbush in a LR role, but your pen is solid.

    Defense: You didnt put any stats so **** you. I know Aybar is below average at SS. Headley is good at 3B

    Suggestions: Put stats in your clubhouse. Trade one of your 3-4 pitchers for offense.


    Overview: The top team was pretty obvious for me here. The third tier teams were Tokyo and Portland, could have really gone either way but I like Tokyo just a tad bit more. Mianus and Trill were close too, but Mianus' lineup just has way too many question marks. Mianus is 6th in a division with only 5 teams yikes .

    If you have problems with my rankings then you have a problem with me

    WAR Division

    1. Kodiak KingBallers

    Offense: I really like your lineup. You have a lot of speed at the top. Good enough power in the middle. Aside from Beckham the bottom isnt too bad either.

    Starting Pitching: Your SP is decent but once you factor in your ballpark its probably above average.

    Relief Pitching: I like your bullpen

    Defense: Your OF defense is very good with Trout and Gomez. Phillips is good in the infield but everyone else is below average.

    Suggestions: I really like your team

    2. Pawnee Lil Sebastians

    Offense: Your offense is probably slightly below average, but will likely be helped for Rogers Centre which would push it to above average. Your highest OBP is .335 which isn't very good.

    Starting Pitching: Your 1-2 is very very good. Your 3-4 is also pretty solid.

    Relief Pitching: Your bullpen is very very good.

    Defense: Your OF defense is definitely below average. Your infield defense is average.

    Suggestions: Try to get a guy with an OBP over .350 that is a good defender.

    3. Team Ramrod

    Offense: I still think its a solid offense, slightly above average. You lack a middle of the order bat

    Starting Pitching: Your starting pitching is very solid. Carpenter and Beachy are injury concerns.

    Relief Pitching: Your bullpen is also very good

    Defense: (Assuming the stats are right) Your defense is also very good

    Suggestions: Your lineup is missing a middle of the order bat

    4. Bakersfield Dustbowls

    Offense: Your lineup is very nice. Your stats have no consistency you're just trying to make your players look good (obviously). You have Dunn's OBP at .370 but he hasn't had an OBP that high in 4 years

    Starting Pitching: Parker is nice but there are a lot of question marks behind him. Hudson pitched horrible when he wasn't injured. Skaggs and Harvey are very nice prospects but I would only expect one of them to struggle big time. Romero was horrible last season, at least he throws a lot of innings.

    Relief Pitching: Your bullpen isn't very good. Thayer was horrible outside of Petco last year. I like Lindstrom and Burnett more than Thayer.

    Defense: Your OF defense isn't very good. Hardy is a good SS so that helps with having Cabrera next to him.

    Suggestions: Your pen could definitely use some help as could your rotation.

    5. Venice Beach Vagabonds

    Offense: I don't like Reddick hitting 4th, but Yankee stadium will probably help him. I also dont buy Desmond repeating last season. I probably would have tried to get more lefties if I had Yankees stadium.

    Starting Pitching: Your rotation isn't very good for Yankees stadium.

    Relief Pitching: Your bullpen is shaping up nicely

    Defense: Your OF defense is very good. The left side of your infield is likely going to regress on what they did last year.

    Suggestions: I would probably try to acquire more lefties for the lineup and probably trade McCarthy for a lefty.


    Overview: Bakersfield's pitching has way too many question marks for me. Ramrod and Pawnee have good pitching and good enough hitting to have an edge over you. Kodiak isn't great at anything but is solid all around. Venice should have either built a dominate lineup or starting rotation, but your pitching isnt good for Yankees stadium and your offense is average. The top 3 teams are very close.
