Yup, that's another one. I'm not maxing their stats out by any means, but I'm going to make sure the correct players are in realistic ratings spots.

Personally, I think the top 3 should be in this order:
Roy Halladay
Cliff Lee
Chase Utley

Also, I remember watching an interview with Russell saying that last year injuries affect ratings this year. If that's the case then Jimmy Rollins shouldn't be ranked #4. He had the injury bug bad last year, and only played in about 82 games or something like that.

Like I said, thank God for editiing.

I found that odd as well. Utley and Rollins are rated way too high and it looks like Howard a bit lower than he should be. Ryan Madson shouldnt be that high either. Everyone else looks about where they should be. If Brown continues to play at the same level he has all through last year, winter ball and so far in ST he needs to be rated a lot lower than what he is.

I'm fine with Howard being lower than last year, he straight killed me!

Not to mention Victorino being rated higher than Ryan Howard. What is that all about? I love Shane, but he shouldn't be higher than the big man. Neither should Jimmy.

victorino perhaps is rated higher because of his superb fielding and basepath skills. I will be interested to look this up when I get the game, but I bet he out rates howard in everything but power, contact, and maybe plate discipline.

I agree, some of the ratings for the Braves seem a bit off. Kimbrell and Venters low rating was a bit disappointing

I wasnt too disappointed with Kimbrels rating. Once he reigns in his control his ratings should go way up. Venters was lights out last year I do agree he should have been rated higher.
