Power Rankings - Week 7

about those Power Rankings....

First, I was extra unmotivated to get them done earlier.

Secondly, I realized that I have been calculating them wrong. It's not a huge mistake but a mistake none-the-less. I wasn't factoring in ties. I have done so for week 7 and will have to re-do the previous 6 weeks.





Yahoo Rankings

Biggest Gain : Best.Team.Ever, moving up 2 spots from 8th to 6th, after an 8-3 victory over Superdeluxe.

Biggest Loser : Brew Crew Lite, dropping 3 spots from 6th to 9th, after a 5-7 loss to slowly rising El Pad's Scallywags.

Surprise of the week : bottom feeding ToddPacker defeating Baseball is stoopid by the score of 7-4.

bottom feeding... that's fucked up... although my team does suck

Corbin,
Get over it. I was hammered and am still supremely pissed off since you picked up Gallardo 3 fucking minutes before I went to make the move.

El Padrino said...

i got SP and RP
looking for any offensive help

Anonymous said...

Corb, no. I didn't try to get Braun. I knew I couldn't.

I also just assumed nobody else knew about Gallardo.

El Padrino said...

Spiff, Cordero?

El Padrino said...

and deke some pitching maybe?

Spaceman Spiff said...

i thought you were looking for hitting? and if its brewer's cordero, cant trade him

El Padrino said...

Chad, do need more hitting but a couple of saves wont hurt

Anonymous said...

I like my pitching staff. And my offense. They just can't all put them both together for a week.

El Padrino said...

ok then bye bye now

Anonymous said...

Corbin, if I'm trading, I'm looking for an everyday outfielder

Professor Chaos said...

OFer you say? Hermida is an everyday OFer...he could be added to an expanded deal

Anonymous said...

He's got 60 ABs.

Professor Chaos said...

He was hurt to begin the year...fouled a ball off his knee...look at his game log. Plays daily

Anonymous said...

I don't know right now.

El Padrino said...

corb whatta need

El Padrino said...

i need more offense

Professor Chaos said...

Ideally I'd need a SS. I can acquire one of the elite ones if I give up D-Lee (which i really don't want to do now that his power is coming around). So I need a SS or a power hitting 1st baseman...

what you got?

I'm just trying to get my ducks all in a row right now. I don't wanna go prospecting while I'm in the thick of the race.

"I'm just trying to get my ducks all in a row right now. I don't wanna go prospecting while I'm in the thick of the race."

I'm in first...and have gone prospecting...You know and I know Gallardo is an elite talent...who's price will only go up after he demonstrates that to everyone on the major league stage

El Padrino said...

i dont see a match

Professor Chaos said...

I hit you up ELP.

And true story...i went to look for your team and didn't anticipate i would have to scroll ALL THE WAY DOWN to 16

El Padrino said...

it's been a struggle, but i'm poised for a run, it's a long season

Professor Chaos said...

Best of luck ELP...But it does appear as if we're both trying to fill holes in offense, so we aren't that great of a match

Professor Chaos said...

meiz, i hit you up

El Padrino said...

yup, although i have some interest in King Felix

Anonymous said...

Deke - I've got plenty of everyday OF'ers, let's make a deal.

El Padrino said...

blue i'll take old man Kent off your hands, interested?

Anonymous said...

EP - rejected, I left some info for you.

El Padrino said...

alrighty then

El Padrino said...

you have all three AZ OF's? weird

Professor Chaos said...

i'd be downgrading at both offensive positions AND losing a met WHILE picking up two yanks Blue...(i have zero desire for any yankee pitcher)

terrible deal

Anonymous said...

Byrnes get consistent run on my squad, Quentin and Young are just prospects for me.

don't bitch about wanting an elite SS if you don't really want to give anything up. Statistically I was giving up two guys who are and will hit over .340 for the season, knock in runs and even swipe some bags. You have to give to get idiot.

Pick a pitcher then, you can have anyone of them.

jeter and helton with a pitcher is a fair deal for David Wright and Derek Lee right?

statistically it's a very fair trade

NOT CLOSE BLUE...Not at all

1st and 2nd rounders there...

Professor Chaos said...

Meiz, i hit you up

BLUE said...

you gotta get over where guys were drafted. Jeter was obviously a first rounder too dickwad.

So you're telling me that somebody like Linecum who wasn't even drafted is not worth anything because of draft position?

That's the dumbest theory ever....ever.....ever.

and look at what you gave up to get wright, it wasn't any 1st or 2nd round choices..you're just stoopid.

Professor Chaos said...

I acquired Wright when his value was at an all time low. I am a met fan, so i attach more value to him. I think Lee can put up Pujols-ian numbers if healthy and the weather is just starting to heat up at Wrigley...

I don't see us being a match

Draft position isn't the end all be all, but these players are players I believe in, where as Helton/Jeter I don't. You tried to give me Jeter for Upton and Riske, now you're jacking him off? Come on now

BLUE said...

corbin is the most retarded person here.

if you don't want a shortstop that's fine. But obviously you don't understand that nobody is going to trade with you because your offers and thoughts about players are from another planet.

Professor Chaos said...

I guess i should jump at the opportunity to acquire your great pitchers such as Mussina (2 wins, 18 K's, 5.86 ERA) or Baek (who i streamed with, as that is really his only value and his 3 wins, 34 K's, 4.93 ERA). My trades were to improve my offense, and you wanted Derrick Lee and David Wright for Jeter and Helton...(read: two worse players)

BLUE said...

it's ok that you overvalue david wright, that's your perogative...but he sure as hell isn't worth Berkman/Glaus/Putz

this is why nobody trades with you unless they are stoopid.

Professor Chaos said...

Reyes offset the Putz addition...so it was Glaus and Berkman.

I'm fine sitting atop the standings with the team i have

Professor Chaos said...

Do you go with the two windows open, or jump back and forth blue? I just jump, but may be missing some shlt

Anonymous said...

I don't get offended by poor trade proposals bc I make them myself but come on corby....

figgins and markakis

for

hermidia and some other schmo?

figgins is going to rebound, either on the angels or another team if he gets dealt.

Professor Chaos said...

I'm not a believer in Figgins, he's buried in the 9 hole on that team...but after Weeks went down I sent out a few fliers for 2nd basemen on teams that have backups
