Johnny Peralta isn't even in the Top 10 rated SS's in the game? Tied for second among all SS in HR, 2nd in RBI, led all SS in WAR, 3rd in DWAR. SMH...
I'm actually Ok with Rizzo at 84. We have to remember that it will increase in a franchise. Him being A potential it could possibly grow to 90+. But still Castros rating irritates me. He will grow too but a 24 yr old 3x all star SS and he's an 80!?!

Not sure but his defense being so bad is probably why he isn't rated as a higher ss. Not sure how much D effects the ratings, but that could be it.

Cueto has a 2.54 ERA the last 3 years. His WAR is less than Klubers though.
David Price has 5 more WAR. (20 more starts though) a lower ERA. Exact same FIP, Lower BB/9. But lower K k/9.
Darvish has 3 more WAR (10 more starts). Higher K/9, does have a higher BB/9. Basically the same ERA. Higher FIP though.
Bumgarner has a lower ERA. But his BB/9 is higher. K/9 is lower and his FIP is higher.
Now id say he should be ahead of Fernandez though. Point is Kluber has had 1 good year. Do it again and he will easily be top 10 next year.

Pretty much everyone's mad if their favorite teams player didnt get a 90 plus rating lol. A credential like gold glove or "2 times all star" means nothing. Scott Rolen made the ASG with like a 650 OPS and being injured. Come on people.....
Plus for the one millionth time....overalls mean nothing because certain attributes are weighted heavier for each position.
Castro will probably have 70-80 contact, 40-50 power, and 60-70 defense like he does every year. In Mlb 13 he was probably a 90+ but now he is an 80 does not change how he performs on the field.

That would definitely make sense since defense at short is a top priority for most teams over offense. Its the only reason Zach Cozart still has a starting job, with how awful he is offensively,lol.
If it does indeed take into account defense more for a ss, then that's probably why Castro isn't rated as high as what some Cubs might think he should be with him being a poor defensive player.

I agree, now Castro range definitely should be higher than Peralta's, but Peralta fields the routine plays cleanly, he just don't have a lot of range, where as Starlin has the range, but is challenged defensively, along with mentally challenged as well out there,lol. He did improve some last yr, but still not good. His bat keeps him in the starting lineup for them.
Does SD Studios realize that Bumgarner is the best WS pitcher of all time? I am pretty sure that the answer is no, because a 92 doesn't reflect his talent. But, maybe I am taking postseason too much into account. I just thought that he had finally proven himself as the supreme beer guzzler and a top 3 pitcher. Jordan Zimmerman should be top-10 too. He might be tied with all those 92s.

They rate based on a 3 yr average with last yr weighing the heaviest of the 3 seasons. I don't think they take Postseason into account when ratings. Some guys just happen to step up come the postseason, but are just descent during the season, for instance Andy Pettitte over the years, just a pretty good pitcher during the season, but great come postseason, same with the Panda once the Postseason hits. Could Madbum probably be a little higher up, yeah I would probably agree to that, and if he starts the season out on fire, they will bump him up no doubt.

I didn't know they did that,although does make some sense to boost that a little, all I knew was they rated based on the 3 yr average with last y weighing the heaviest of the 3, I think 50% of it is based on the last season actually.

Cant be a prisoner of the moment when rating a player.
The 3 yr avg of a players performance makes sense to me. Gotta be the "flavor of 3-4 yrs" instead of "flavor of the month" to get a logical overall rating.
As mentioned, Kluber is a good example. I wish he was higher and he obviously had a great year last year. I agree with the bump in overall for this year but hopefully that will continue for the next few years and he wont be just a flash in the pan, therefore improving his overall even more in future MLBTS games.

Maybe the shredder did some of these ratings,lol. Or Brian Kinney, although I don't think the ratings are as bad as Kinney and the Shredder would do
