MLB '10: The Show Top 5 Shortstops

[Speedy]

Russell. Seriously?

All of the pic's of Yunel and he's not even top 5? Good defense + electric arm (better than Furcal), and his 3-year average is .301 BA /.426 Slugg /.801 OPS

C'mon!!

Spoiler

Trying to cover the man love, eh?

Jeter is alright. Good contact, average power. I think his fielding is a bit high, but what do you gonna do?. Jeter had a great year 2009. He deserves it. His plate discipline is even a bit underrated. He had a .406 OBP, thats great for a non-power hitter.

Yes, I know a computer program does the ratings but wouldn't you think there should be at least some human intervention, so this doesn't happen. Hanley is top 3 players in the game with Mauer and Pujols, how isn't he higher than Reyes

I would probably take Ramirez too...but they are two completely different players. Ramirez is extremely dangerous but when Reyes is playing well, there are few players that can cause more trouble for the opposition.

And defense is far more important than you are making it out to be.

Jeter top 5, I expected that !

<<<<<<<< Waiting for Centerfielders.

Good list with a few slight tweaks needed but good none the less.

It rips the heart right out of my chest that we've done 3 of these now and I still have yet to see a Brewer.

Can we do Left Field next so I don't feel like jumping off a building anymore?

I'm a little confused about how the ratings work now. According to SCEA it is based on the past three years with the most recent year getting most of the weight in the ratings. That explains Zobrist being rated so high at second base after only one good year in the majors.

But if that's the standard, how does Reyes get a 90 durability and 98 speed after playing in only 36 games last year due to injuries?

I don't get it.
