[do work son]

I'm not sold on these rankings lol

these rankings are trash

I'd be mad too if my team was basura.

Dudes upset at The Show rankings because they drafted a bunch of players who won't see the field until Sep 2015, did you really expect to be in the Top 5 this season?

Agree with this.  I think it was absolutely absurd how high prospects went in this draft....especially some who have never played an inning of big league ball.  I have always and will always view prospects as complete unknowns (regardless of how high of a prospect).  More times than not, prospects flame out and don't turn into anything at all. 

To count on prospects as future cornerstones of your team is silly.  You never know what will happen.

I get why anyone would be mad...but then again, one page of it already has me a bit annoyed

Please let the simulation play out, guys. Never know how badly the ratings can be proven wrong.

Guys, no.

I have the #1, #3, #6, #12, #18, and #20th rated defensive players THIS season, and I'm 30th in defense? How in the ****?

I'm fine if the sim says my offense will be a lil behind with my youth, I got that, but DEFENSIVELY, this season, my team is LOADED, and 30th? That's bull ****.

It's nothing against you just the dumb formulas The Show runs.

Either way, I'm confident in my team winning the pennant.

28th best staff l o l

Wheeler, Ryu, Smyly and DeGrom is beastly.

Contact: 18th
Power: 11st
Speed: 8th
Defense: 9th
Pitching: 21th
Overall: 26th

How is "overall" calculated?

I know some categories are valued more than others but how is someone's overall lower than there worst category?

 

[proshares]

I meant to type that last night, I gotta believe it's weighted somehow. Probably emphasis on the pitching.

I also think that in regards to pitching, they weigh starters in relief roles a little more harshly. So there's that

Again, this is using the rankings from the start of the season. Using that created roster was the only way to get a full minor league roster. I have no issue running it again once '15 comes out
