The most interesting thing im seeing is that Pat Vindette was added, he's listed as a switch hitter and a left handed thrower.

Donaldson once again snubbed. What does he have to do to go diamond ? 3 homers per game for the next week?

Archer, gray and betances finally get the boost they deserve

I'm kicking myself. I saw he was going for like 17k last night and I really wanted to sell him but I knew in the back of my mind that they refuse to upgrade people to diamond. His batting stats are pretty mediocre so there is definitely room for an upgrade. I don't understand the logic that they bump Harvey to diamond after a month but greinke, gray etc won't get that upgrade.

This update was not great in terms of upgrading players but it was good at taking down all the players that have not been performing very well. There are still a lot more that need to be dropped to limit the pool of overrated players.

Melky Cabrera got dropped big time, his hitting is horrible now.

While I agree Donaldson should be pushing Diamond, I would argue that people should be more up in arms have about Todd Frazier's rating and he should be a Diamond too then (he's 87 right now). Actually, I think they should have the same overall rating, and one could argue that Frazier is having a better year.

For comparison's sake, here are some Frazier and Donaldson stats:
Frazier is leading the league in XBH, is leading 3B in slugging .603 (Donaldson .575), leading 3B in Homers with 18 (Donaldson 17), leading 3B in wOBA at .410 (Donaldson .403), second in wRC+ 160 (Donaldson 161), first in OPS at .960 (Donaldson .944), and just to throw in one more, Frazier is second with 7 stolen bases.
