re: 2012 Unbiased DATBL Rankings

Giambi's Moustache

Starting Lineup: 31.11 (7th)
This might be the oldest starting lineup in the league. Ortiz, Young, Berkman. Wow. If they all produce the numbers they did last year, it's a solid unit. Unfortunately, I don't see that happening, and outside of Braun, this lineup is riddled with guys I just don't like in fantasy for whatever reason.

Pitching Staff: 25.96 (3rd)
Once again, I disagree with the rating given. This is not the 3rd best staff in the league. I like Felix, Bumgarner, and Gio. After that, the starters blow. Hard. I like Soria as a closer, but Marmol is unpredictable. Javier Vazquez? Really? How the frick is this team 3rd? After looking deeper, CBS seems to like guys like Wandy, Hudson, Fister, and Floyd. Idiots.

Bench: 2.61 (7th tied)
-Hitters off the pine are Carlos Lee, Yunel Escobar, and Alejandro De Aza. Not bad options, but I don't really care for any of them. Please drop Javier Vazquez before I have an aneurysm.

Overall: 59.68 (5th)
-No fricking way. Too many question marks, and not enough backup options. It's almost like when it was this team's turn to draft, they just took the top player listed by Yahoo, with no consideration to a plan or the future. There are a few good core pieces to build from, but if things aren't looking good at the deadline, try to get younger. Actually, try to get younger now.

I expect Redd to tear up the ranking system for putting my team 5th

OK, now it's time to deal with you.


I already said at the beginning that the difference between 6th overall and 10th overall was miniscule. And I've also made comments throughout this thread when I disagree with what the rankings spit out. Your team is not bad, but I predict that your pride will prevent you from making the necessary moves it will take to be a true contender. Most people take unsolicitated advice from others and use it as a tool to improve their team. You use it to get angry and defensive. Sew up the vagina, grow a sack, and quit being so whiney.
