MLB 14 The Show - Top 9 Players at Each Position

[andrewochs615]

Wonder what Machado is rated? Many baseball people think he is a top 9 3rd basemen.

Is the Adjusted Overall part of Franchise as well? Or is it just for RTTS...???

Because that would solve a lot of these disagreement about the Overalls...

I believe Machado had a low 80's rating in the final update last year, that most likely means he's a little less this year. There were a couple things off though like his fielding not being in the 90's, but what is currently holding him back from being near the top is power - it's weighted fairly heavily in The Show for third basemen.

Curious what Donaldson's rating is since he didn't make top 10

Ratings actually look better done this year than they have in the past. this along with pitcher repertoires is where SCEA lacks at, and it looks like they did a good job on ratings, so hopefully the same goes for pitcher repertoires this year. If they get pitcher repertoires right, I guarantee i will break down and buy this game yet

In the last 3 seasons (Sony's criteria for rankings), including one cut short by the injury, Posey is at 14 career WAR. Molina was 16.1 WAR over that period. It's true that Molina was "better" over that period, but he also played more games, so let's not pretend we can't logically deduce who might be better if they both played the same number of games.
