Geaux seems to be concentrating on this league more than any other one though, so it could be fine.

Nice subtle jab at the end of geaux's review

Like I said, I like it better than 10th. Its just how the rankings spit them out.

He's got a sick nasty OF...that's a fact..I was suprised you ranked #1 overall b/c I can't really fap to his IF much.
If you believe in Goldschmidt and Moustakas, then I can understand. I think both will be outside the top 10 of their respective positions.

My team is going to be good but my benche is weighing me down in these rankings so I am fine with my spot

C-Wieters
1B- Goldschimdt or Dunn
2B- Ackley
SS- Jeter or Dee Gordon
3B Moustakas or Prado
i really like Dunn and Prado to bounce back this year. I think he has 3 good fall back options at 1B, SS, and 3B. I figured one of the 2 should work out at each spot. His OF will carry him, but i like the INF potential too.

frick James Shields. Now that we've got that out of the way, Verlander is obviously the stud of the staff. After that, there are questions.
did you forget Romero was on my staff too??
I guess I just love my pitching alot more than you guys.

Team Swag
Starting Lineup: 35.72 (1st)
I don't consider this the best offense in the league, but the ratings disagree. I think the OF has some issues. Rasmus still hasn't put it all together, and Joyce needs to prove he can do it again. I don't trust Chase Utley anymore. Nice pieces in Santana, Longo,, and Tulo though. Curious to see how Hosmer does with a full season.
Pitching Staff: 23.49 (9th)
Some intriguing names on this staff. What to expect out of Darvish? How will Pineda handle NYC? Can Cueto increase his k/9 like some think he will? There isn't a true stud on the staff, imo, but some serviceable talent. In great shape with saves, too. 9th may be an underestimated ranking of this unit.
Bench: 2.33 (10th)
-Nothing to get excited about at all here, to be honest. Only three bats on the bench, although I consider Jackson a starter over Rasmus until Colby proves he can produce. There will be a lot of empty roster spots on days that KC, Phi, TB, and Col don't play.
Overall: 61.53 (4th)
Again, I don't agree with the rating here. I can see him making the playoffs if he manages effectively, but there are a lot of holes. I'd personally rank this team in the 7-9 range rather than 4th.

Hot Stove
Starting Lineup: 30.17 (8th)
-Lack of star power appears to affecting this team's offensive rating, but it's a decent unit. No real dead weight at any position, but no stud that you can ride to a victory in a given week. May need some help in the homer department.
Pitching Staff: 25.58 (4th)
-No super studs here either, although Price could prove to be one if he does what I think he will. Latos should be fine in Cincinnati, and Lester will be Lester. Bud Norris and Addison Reed are wild cards here. I like Bud for his strikeout potential. Let's see if he can improve on other parts of his game. In decent shape in the bullpen.
Bench: 3.10 (5th)
-frick Edwin Encarnacion. More wild cards here with Markakis and Rios. Cespedes has great long term potential. Mesoraco could take over for Montero in this lineup if Dusty Baker starts trusting the rookie.
Overall: 58.85 (6th)
This could be a playoff team, in my opinion. I don't think it has quite enough thunder to win the ship, but in the playoffs anything can happen.

Is he a black speed outfielder who hits .240 with no power?

Heir to the Throne
Starting Lineup: 34.91 (3rd)
-Tons of thunder in Fielder and Bautista. I don't like Arencibia (he will lose his job soon), and Aybar kinda bores me. Jesus Montero might not be ready to fill that U position yet. May wanna throw one of your nice bench options there until he gets his feet wet.
Pitching Staff: 25.21 (5th)
-Greinke, Haren, and Kennedy is a nice trio. Not big on Chacin or Bedard at this point. Saves should be fine. Teheren is a nice prospect to have, assuming he quits giving up homers.
Bench: 3.37 (2nd)
-Nice options on the pine in Gardner, Melky, and Kelly Johnson. Drew could finally put together a full season, too. Good job here.
Overall: 63.49 (2nd)
-Strong team all around. May want to consider trying to move some bench players for a catcher if Arencibia gets the boot quicker rather than later. Montero may be in full stride by then though. Playoff team, in my opinion, but maybe not the 2nd strongest like the ratings suggest.
