Contendas Tier
#6 - Goodfellas - I have his hitting and pitching at the top end of the middle tier...and that's good enough to be bottom of the contendas tier. If being in three Dynasty leagues and an exclusively MiLB league would every satiate Earl's need for young hairless ballplayers, he would wtfpwn this league.
His staff is Kluber, a dude that appears destined for TJ, and a bunch of high k/9 but shitty WHIP guys.

Is he? Didnt realize they made a call on that
Well it was said to be between him and Sanchez, but after the Stroman injury they moved Sanchez back to the rotation.

Ah. He pulled a Port and traded himself out of the top tier IMO.
He had all of these guys last season who are no longer employed by Earl:
Lucroy
Longoria
Puig
Gardner
Kennedy
Tyson Ross
Teheran
Kimbrel
Betances
I think it is a fair assessment

#5 Reddfig - Dem bats doe!!! How do you spell balance? R-e-d-d-f-I-g B-a-t-s. Power / Runs/ Steals / RBI? he has it all.
Clearly building the bats came at a cost when I see this staff...ironically I can't fap when I see this staff. I think Brett Cecil might be his best pitcher.

#9 - Greyballs - How Will only won one ship with the team he had assembled for the last 5 years amazes me. An obvious attempt to infuse some youth has hurt the bats but they should be dangerous enough to eek out some wins.
I am not enamored with his staff as much as a lot of you are. Felix and Zimm are nice #1 and #2. I need to see Arrieta do it again before I buy it. Doug Fister and BMac + Zimmermann? Do you the k/9? Broxton and LaTroy Hawkins are closer to the Hypercolor era than the them being good era.
I look at teams differently, I guess. On the pitching side you don't have to pitch all those guys...just need to hit 25 using your aces and fill in here and there with the leftovers...closers will change hands over the course of the season, migrating to the contender teams - not an early season/draft concern. Regarding my bats, I think I got younger and upgraded overall and I will win SBs most weeks. I'm in the playoffs...can't predict the rest.

Omitting my team and just listing the final three in no order:
Rick - L-O-L my ranking system blows if it puts him in the top 4 of any list that isn't rating bad cholesterol. IF Ortiz and David Wright don't break their hips and Crush Davis turns his Adderall prescription up to 11 he should have a nice balanced offense. Losing Yu hurts but Rick has an army of AZN pitchers ready to unleash. The one strength rick's team has it isn't really weak anywhere.
Chonkus - Chonkus builds his team the way McCain did before the tin hat days. No emphasis on any one stat...lots of the players make me want to kill him, but they perform as a unit.
Three skrong closers and three skrong SP anchor a staff rounded out by a bunch of shitheads.
ETA: Vogt sucks and so do you
Louballs - Lou's team's POWA is the only one that rivals mine and Reddfigs IMO. Much like my team, it will steal bases as well as rick could. His pitching staff is well rounded until Joe Nathan throws one in him dry every week. I imagine Nathan will be joining Brett Cecil on the WW around July 1.

#14 - Gyno - TBM gonna To Be Mad as hell but this is how I see it. Bats look nice...will definitely compete week to week. Having Belt means you will be able to fleece Earl mid season. Now the pitching....I couldn't fap to this staff if you gave me some popsicle sticks, electrical tape and you helped me move my arm up and down. The Giolito, Rodon, Urias trio does make the spidey sense tingle doe.
I was content with Wheeler, Paxton, Ross, and Shelby Miller with Rodon possibly. Wheeler going down hurts bc i didnt draft any SP depth. Same shite happened to me last season with Matt Moore

keeping Jean Segura when you already have a SS will do dat.
I'm okay with this assessment, as Segura had a really down 2014 with injuries and family problems. And I'll need a Reyes replacement sooner rather than later.

The best part of these rankings are Rondo's continued failure at attempting edgy humor

the audacity of you to comment with the shitty team you have constructed....
