Oh, i'm not saying Dunn isn't a good hitter, I wish our lousy GM woulda made more effort to get him considering the numbers he puts up in Wrigley. I was just saying maybe that has something to do with the lower than expected rating. His D is really, really bad though.

Dunn's defense wasn't as bad as it was in previous seasons at 1B last year - playing one position for a whole year helps a bit.

But yeah, his defense is probably why his overall kinda sucks.

Peavy, when healthy, is the best. He hasn't been healthy since joining Chicago. I think Danks can be ace quality, but he hasn't reached there quite yet though. Looks like they really gave Alexei some much needed respect same with Thornton who's now the top ranked player.

I think Danks should be swapped with Floyd on the chart.

He's awesome, that's what's up

I think a lot of his ranking has to do with potential. A lot of scouts view him as a top of the rotation starter eventually. Plus, he made Joe Mauer look silly last year in Minnesota, you gotta get bonus points for that too.

I understand he has tons of potential, but it was just 23.1 innings...
