MLB 09: The Show Team Rankings (Pasta Padre)

[BatsareBugs]

This post will probably be looked over since people want to scroll and see where they team is ranked and post "but my team had X stats and ranked X in blah blah last season!!!one!"

I believe that these ratings ratings are based on the ratings of the players, not on where the team finished up in whatever offensive, defensive, or pitching categories last season. Plus, you have to consider this in comparison to the ratings of players on other teams.

For offense and defense, I think it's based on who is on the team's starting lineup at the moment. Pitching is both the rotation and bullpen.

MARLINS 25th. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!! I'm going to break something. This is insanity. We have the best starting pitching in the NL east. OH GOD, someone help me, I'm ready to explode. Obviously SCEA needs to hire me as an unbiased advisor.

Can someone from SCEA please email me immediately, I'm freaking out. How can you kick a guy when he's down. First the idiots in government deny us a new stadium and then I see this. Please SCEA email at [email protected], I need to convince you to reconsider. I mean we have Uggla, Hanley, Maybin, Cantu, and then the best starting 5 in the east. GUYS PLEASE

my dodgers seem to be pretty middle of the road for the most part (i'm assuming theyre not taking Manny into account).

but that'll change once i put ME in the road to the show mode! we'll be winning the WS in no time....

well, after some training of course.

lol...(picturing indignant Phillies fans coming at miamimarlins1 with pitchforks and torches)

I honestly wouldn't get too bent out of shape about ratings. They're based (as I said before, and I'm pretty confident on this) on player ratings, not some dig at the team.

Remember (again repeated from before...lol) teams with younger, unproven players making up a large part of the team will likely not stand up (data wise) to a team with more veteran or big name talent.

Come off the ledge...lol...everything is editable in this regard

Seriously, you need to calm down. Overall rankings are based on the ratings of the individual players. If you disagree with them, edit your players and bump them up. Problem solved.

It's not the end of the world.

Oh yeah, this coming from the guy who's Reds somehow weaseled their way into the top 10. Reds at #10 is even more insane then the Marlins at 25

Weaseled? LOL

Anyhoo, yeah, it's going to be nice having an overrated Reds team for once. Heck, I've had to deal with the bottom of the barrel for years now. I might actually be able to win some games this year.
