Schafer's Vroooooooooooom (Volfan)
Starting Lineup - 8th
Here is another middle of the pack offense that won't be great at anything, but won't be terrible either. The team is ranked between 6th and 9th in all 5 categories. I really like the youth that is on this team, but it is youth that can produce now.
Players I like - Upton, Castro, Alonso, Beltran
Players I don't like - Ackley
Pitching - 2nd
Top ranked starting pitching staff in the league IMO. The only reason they aren't ranked number 1 is the RP is ranked at 11th since there is only 1 guy that is going to get save chances at the beginning of the year, and that is Capps who is not that good. King Felix, Stras, Josh Johnson, and Romero are all guys who can produce like #1's. I just love the upside there.
Players I like - The ones I listed, as well as Volquez.
Players I don't like - Feliz, Wandy, Capps
Bench - 8th
The only reason this bench isn't ranked higher is there isn't much of one. It is very thin. I do like the upside of Lorenzo Cain who I was really hoping would become a Brave a couple of years ago.
Overall - 6th (5.30)
Pretty good team that could become a very good team with the addition of a closer or two. If Johnson and Stras stay healthy, people will have a hard time winning the other 4 pitching categories every week, and the offense will be competitive. I see this as a team that will be right there for the playoffs all year long.

Starting Lineup - 2nd
This lineup is good, really fricking good. Ranked either 1st or 2nd in HR, Runs, RBIs, and SBs. Only thing keeping him from the top ranking is he graded out 10th in OPS. You look at it and aren't completely blown away, but there is not a weak spot in the lineup and a bunch of guys produce in 4 or even 5 categories.
Players I like - Kemp, Reynolds
Players I don't like - Bourn
Pitching - 7th
I like the top half of the rotation of Lincecum, Hanson, and Beckett while also liking the trio of closers who should help win saves a lot of the weeks. Johan is an interesting guy here, and I'll be curious to see how he looks in the opening part of the season.
Players I like - Hanson, Beckett, Bell
Players I don't like - Tim Hudson, Buchholz, Perez
Bench - 9th
Went the young route with Belt, Profar, and Arenado. Maybe a little too young. But they will be valuable down the line, in either a trade or if he can wait it out for them to get to the bigs.
Overall - 5th (4.95)
Pretty damn good team that should make the playoffs, especially if another decent starter is added.
