Players On The Rise
OOPS! So I had gone with the trend of assuming the major re-ratings evaluation would occur this week. But that just did not happen. We'll have to assume it's coming next week instead.
In its place this was a very small update where the only ratings changes were based on position switches. Therefore, by default the big risers were players moving from relieving back to starting.
Tier Changes
(All thanks go to Daddy Leagues for these numbers! They're so on the ball I no longer have to sync up before and after roster update video clips to do all the changes myself.)
- Chris Bassitt went from Common to Bronze
Full List Of Changes
Tyler Wilson +5 boost in Overall rating (63 Overall)
Chris Bassitt +4 (71)
Tanner Roark +4 (84)
David Phelps +4 (75)
Jeanmar Gomez +3 (67)
Pedro Villarreal +4 (59)
Juan Nicasio +4 (68)
Players On The Decline
So everything I said about players on the rise also applies to players on the decline. The players who went through position changes are the ones who got dinged with a drop in overall.
Tier Changes
- Joe Blanton went from Bronze to Common
- Taylor Jordan went from Bronze to Common
- Josh Collmenter went from Silver to Bronze

Market Changes
There was the introduction of the All-Star packs over the weekend. These packs cost between 15-50K so they mostly were cost prohibitive enough to not shake up the market too much.
Ratings Boost Prediction Results
Let's look at all the egg on my face as I assumed the big ratings re-evaluation would happen this week.
