With an actual 29 active teams this year, lack of depth has finally happened , but call ups before the minors started this last week should help with that with more coming in June. 26 teams were in the playoff hunt late, could be 27 this year if the ball bounce right. Bench guys actually a factor finally?
Current Rank (previous rank) current roto stat total (previous stat total)
1 (3) Washington Nationals 291.5 (256) - team to beat with the 8 new studs they got from the Dodgers, they will win Saves, don't try
2 (13) San Francisco Giants 278.5 (216) - always shows up with a well balanced team, who else could get Matt Harvey to pitch well?
3 (11) Cincinnati Reds 277 (218) - The strongest all around team, added Stanton but so deep, he is 2nd on the depth chart for UT.
4 (1) Atlanta Braves 265 (316) - hitting a small issue right now, more .1's than anyone wants, but Corbin Burnes picking up for it.
5 (6) San Diego Padres 256 (241) - Willie Adames hits and this team rolls, On a side note the Addams family kicks ass.
5 (14) Los Angeles Angels 256 (209) - Worst speller in the league can't spell half of team's last names now. Can't find Duffy's era, lost it.
7 (7) Baltimore Orioles 251.5 (227) - MI's working pretty well, the name Keller isn't working right now, nether are the umps.
8 (2) Colorado Rockies 246.5 (268) -Will a catcherless team work? why not, after top 5-7 they suck? team is built for the playoffs
9 (12) Chicago White Sox 237 (216) - Pitching is strong (Tyler Who?), starting hitting strong (Where did this guy Haniger come from?)
10 (19) Minnesota Twins 236 (168) - Buxton, Vlad, Posey great starts, Yeah Posey, 2012 calling, did you get what we sent you?
11(5) New York Mets 235.5 (241) - This is the team getting smacked with injuries the hardest right now. Clint Frazier or Frazier Crane?
12 (15) Tampa Bay Rays 218 (204) - Springer is almost in game shape. Tryouts being held for more players with G's in their name.
13 (4) Detroit Tigers 214 (249) - ok, I was corrected, thought I saw an episode of M.A.S.H. when I pulled up this team.
14 (10) Milwaukee Brewers 209 (216) - a bit pitching heavy, but a Yankees hot streak gets this team going, Seth Beer is needed.
15 (17) Cleveland Indians 193.5 (199) - A rough patch when you start 2 catchers in a 1 catcher league, best 1st name "Seranthony"
16 (23) New York Yankees 187 (143) - MadBum, Timmy, Cain, they were great back in their 20's, but its Lynchberg time.
17 (8) Arizona Diamondbacks 184.5 (221) Still a young team, just need some seasoning and some Gates BBQ sauce.
18 (21) Houston Astros 181 (178) - Frankie McMahon and the 4 Slaphitters, is Deivy going to break the record for the number of teams?
19 (20) Seattle Mariners 179.5 (178) - Verdugo better than I thought but Houston we have a pitching problem
20 (22) Miami Marlins 169 (163) - Still waiting for Andujar to appear but shocking Heyword keeps appearing.
21 (27) St. Louis Cardinals 135.5 (116) - Zach Davies need TJ? Miggy is no Nelson Cruz, was never said before 2019.
22 (9) Los Angeles Dodgers 132.5 (224) - 1 less large contract to help build this team back up. Tapia, the Rockies moving to small ball?
23 (16) Pittsburgh Pirates 128 (204) - Seen an entire team on a cold streak before, if not look at this one.
24 (24) Toronto Blue Jays 118 (134) - Too many Milb that won't make impact this year, Will Amir Garrett fight anyone?
25 (26) Boston Red Sox 117 (117) - Rosario vs KC this week, slump over
26 (25) Oakland Athletics 109.5 (124) - Some good FA pick ups for a hot streak or trading season.
27 (18) Philadelphia Phillies 105 (196) - Heeere's Vasharo, can an entire team have their career worst year all together?
28 (28) Texas Rangers 74.5 (62) - Jasson Dominguez getting the call up? Might get a 2nd win
29 (29) Kansas City Royals 58 (58) - 5 young guys now getting some MLB time, this team will be like Jiffy Pop, another call up, another
30 (30) Chicago Cubs (40) 18 - Travis Blankenhorn scored a run, the next "Moonlight" Graham, so there is that.
