#11 RDR
Point Value: 2.18
Hitting Rank: 13th
Pitching Rank: 9th
Farm Rank: 13th
Top 3 Bats: 22 Charlie Blackmon, 70 Kyle Seager, 85 Eric Hosmer
Top 3 Arms: 99 Carlos Martinez, 119 Kenta Maeda, 141 Tony Watson
Outlook: At first glance, it would be easy to say "frick these rankings, because RDR won the playoffs last year." However, when you factor in that this team barely got in as the 8th seed before catching fire, and then add that a lot of teams really boosted their rosters via trade this offseason, maybe its not so far off? Not really sure, to be honest. Either way, its a solid squad that obviously could be in the playoffs again.

#10 Boo
Point Value: 7.39
Hitting Rank: 5th
Pitching Rank: 14th
Farm Rank: 14th
Top 3 Bats: 9 Jose Altuve, 23 Carlos Correa, 41 Ryan Braun
Top 3 Arms: 131 Jose Quintana, 160 Jerad Eickhoff, 161 Jake Odorizzi
Outlook: Despite having what most would consider to be a sub-par offseason, Boo should still be considered a contender. The bats are still strong, and while the staff is a bit below average, it's serviceable enough to contend most weeks.

I think I was ranked 10th last year so whatevs. My goal in a head to head league is to just make the playoffs. I do think I have improved since last season with the addition of Kemp on offense and added a bunch of SP depth in the form of Snell, Folty, and Davies (plus Bartolo

#9 Gyno
Point Value: 16.29
Hitting Rank: 3rd
Pitching Rank: 13th
Farm Rank: 11th
Top 3 Bats: 5 Joey Votto, 12 Miguel Cabrera, 18 Brian Dozier
Top 3 Arms: 122 Kyle Barraclough, 128 Matt Shoemaker, 129 Aaron Sanchez
Outlook: It's fair to say that Gyno's success will be determined by how well his pitching staff performs. Many of them already have a history of success (Richards, Keuchel), but he also has two highly regarded young arms (Giolito, Severino) whose stock has fallen a bit as of late. The offense is disgusting, with Machado (#20 overall) added into that trio listed above.

#8 Papz
Point Value: 20.74
Hitting Rank: 1st
Pitching Rank: 16th
Farm Rank: 2nd
Top 3 Bats: 2 Mike Trout, 16 Freddie Freeman, 29 AJ Pollock
Top 3 Arms: 72 Julio Teheran, 117 Ken Giles, 220 Darren O'Day
Outlook: Ah, the FSBDL version of the '89-'90 Loyola Marymount team. Papz is gonna need Glasnow up and running at full strength down the stretch in order to make noise in the playoffs, IMO. Moncada will eventually boost an already dangerous lineup.

#7 Swamie
Point Value: 20.86
Hitting Rank: 19th
Pitching Rank: 1st
Farm Rank: 7th
Top 3 Bats: 50 Corey Seager, 78 Mark Trumbo, 94 Ian Kinsler
Top 3 Arms: 3 Max Scherzer, 55 Yu Darvish, 56 Stephen Strasburg
Outlook: Ah, the FSBDL version of the 2000 Baltimore Ravens team. Swamie will need a power surge from some of his bats in order to be a true contender. Great staff though. Win 5/6 pitching stats every week, then pull off NSB and one other hitting category, and it's all you need to win this thing.

#6 DJ30
Point Value: 24.99

Farm Rank: 19th
Top 3 Bats: 33 Nelson Cruz, 46 Jonathan Villar, 76 Ben Zobrist
Top 3 Arms: 30 Chris Sale, 51 Andrew Miller, 79 Wade Davis
Outlook: This team bores me, honestly. No big boppers in the lineup other than Cruz, and it's getting old. I do like the top half of his pitching staff though. I feel like this team will break down in the second half and sputter down the stretch.

#5 Chat
Point Value: 31.10
Hitting Rank: 10th
Pitching Rank: 3rd
Farm Rank: 5th
Top 3 Bats: 4 Paul Goldschmidt, 58 Yoenis Cespedes, 90 Evan Longoria
Top 3 Arms: 15 Noah Syndergaard, 49 David Price, 52 Masahiro Tanaka
Outlook: Chat has without a doubt been the most consistent and successful owner in this league so far. He is one of only two teams (Redd being the other) to make the playoffs both seasons. I have no reason to believe he doesn't make it this year either. Strong foundation, and also has a nice farm to keep building from.

Fantrax has some inflated numbers for the dude, IMO. 21 QS for starters. K Rate is higher than those you mentioned as well, i would guess. And don't forget IP.

#4 T&P
Point Value: 35.03
Hitting Rank: 8th
Pitching Rank: 4th
Farm Rank: 12th
Top 3 Bats: 6 Josh Donaldson. 42 Trevor Story, 91 Ian Desmond
Top 3 Arms: 10 Madison Bumgarner, 19 Corey Kluber, 27 Jon Lester
Outlook: Sometimes it just takes new ownership to turn a team around. T&P burst onto the scene last season after taking over what was pretty much a bottom-of-the-barrel franchise. I recall them being ranked pretty low in these rankings last year, but they made some key moves and got a ton of assistance from their youngsters. True contender. I expect them to be very active on the trade front as the deadline nears.
