1. Between, the three of us, 37 total players were ranked. Last season, with an extra ranker (Andy Leslie), 41 total players were ranked.
2. In all, 24 players were ranked in the top 30 by all three of us. 5 players were ranked by two of us, and 8 players were listed on just one ballot.
3. All three of us had 9 of the combined top 10 in our personal top 10 lists. Doug had Drew Vettleson in his top 10, while Jake and I both had Nick Barnese in our top 10s.
4. Of players who were ranked by all three of us, Derek Dietrich had the widest range. He was as high as 16 on Jake's list and as low as 30 on Doug's.
5. The top 10 contains 8 pitchers and 2 hitters. 11-20 has 4 pitchers and 6 hitters. 21-30 features 3 pitchers and 7 hitters. 31-37 has 5 pitchers and 2 hitters. So in total, the top 37 has 20 pitchers and 17 hitters, but the talent up top is clearly in the pitching.
Kevin, Make a mental note, don't be the first to post your top 30 list next year.
ReplyDeleteJust kidding, anytime someone makes a rating list there will always be some disagreement but I was really surprised at some of the negative reaction.
You folks do a terrific job and I look forward to reading this site daily.
I absolutely agree. Thanks for all the work keeping us informed. I think there is an emotional attachment to some of the players. Staistics tell the story. Thanks Again
ReplyDeleteHa ha, diamondtom with great advice, as always. Thanks to both of you on behalf of RP.
ReplyDeleteI could see arguments for any of the 7 who finished 31-37 in the combined list. Here's hoping hitters from the past 2 drafts make progress this year so our lists next year aren't so pitcher-heavy.
