Lets sink the greatest rivalry in sports...what a great idea! I get that every team has fans, that doesnt mean we change the thread to "who starts in the RF for the m's". Lets stay on the subject, thats all.

How are saying the Braves are too high at 8?

Your joking right... 6 elimination games won because the ball bounced their way? 2 championships in 3 years cause we got every call? Do you even know good baseball when you see it? Oh yeah ... Your a dodger fan...

This thread is great.

Every posters favorite team is underrated, and their rival is overrrated?

Did I read Dodger fan say Giants won a couple of world championships because they got EVERY call and EVERY break? Wow. Talk about sour grapes

Wow these are pretty surprising. So the Giants are the defending champs and are behind Colorado and not even considered the best in their own division? The Phillies at number 10? Dodger defense at 2? SMH.

Seeing how this thread has become one of the most active threads in recent memory, I cannot help but be disappointed by the prospect of more realistic player rating system diminishing to nothingness....

SCEA must be doing something right about rating to get people excited it this much.....

I laughed when I saw that the Rockies had the #23 best pitching in the game...they have the the worst by far. And third in offense? Really? Besides Tulo and Cargo they have nobody else. They had the third worst record in the league last year, and now they have a better team than the defending champs..oh great. The reason the Giants are so low is that: Lincegum will have a horrible rating based on his performance last year, they have undervalued guys in the bullpen such as Kontos and Javi Lopez, the game does not factor in the manager, Pence will have bad ratings, there is no team or clubhouse chemistry , and the game doesn't appreciate the amazing defense of Brandon Belt and Brandon Crawford. These ratings are only based on the the teams on paper NOT how they play out in the field. The Giants do all the little things right and they are ultimately a top 10 team. Also, Dodgers fans stop hating on the Giants. No matter how much money you spend and how many excuses you come up with, you will never be able to beat us.
