MLB '10: The Show Official Team Ratings and Explanation

[Rickeysue]

It's going to be a great year to be a Rockies fan both on the field in real life and in The Show. The players are saying there is a special feeling going into the season this year that hasn't been there in the past. Rockies fans, get pumped!

Found the team stats for defense...I find it interesting how the team who was 13th in Errors is #2 on defense, and 19th in Fielding %. How is this physically possible?! I understand they use a different system, but maybe it needs to be changed.

Pittsburgh actually lead the league in fewest errors and highest fielding %, Phillies 2nd fewest errors and 3rd best fielding %. So why is it that the Mets rate 18 spots higher then the pirates on defense, and 3 spots higher then the phillies?

This is like saying Shaq is a better free throw shooter than Mark Price! The numbers don't lie!

I find it shocking when I turn on the TV and hear things like David Wright is stirring up the NL East because he says its their goal to win the NL East and World Series. Isn't the point of playing to win the World Series? Isn't that every team goal? I'm a Phillies fan, but christ, they turn EVERYTHING into something much larger than it is. I'd be pissed if I were a Mets fan and I heard Wright say, well I dont feel to great about this year, maybe wild card?!

Twins at 23rd Defense BOGGLES my mind, but other than that looks good for my Twins

Fellas, keep the posts on topic. You have an issue with the ratings, find a way to express yourself appropriately, not like a 5 year old.

Amen pal.

As much as I love the non-stop sports coverage nowadays, it's also a detriment compared to the pre-Internet era. Everyone needs to get some type of "scoop" As you said...it's a story when a player says it's his goal to win the World Series? Or yesterday, in Johan Santana's case, some idiot (seriously, how do these reporters get their jobs?) asks him point blank who the best pitcher in the NL East is.

He says "Johan Santana." Wow...he's really stirring it up there.

What's he supposed to say?
