PEVA Shuffle Index - Batting
Power Rankings
March
15, 2012 - It was a hot stove league that really made a few teams
look like they'll be great, and at the expense of the bottom half that
does not look like they'll contend for years. But who knows.
Baseball's funny that way. What seems like a power squad
might just not be. But we think, at least with one of thsese
squads, well, more like two or three of these squads, that they will.
And we're pretty doubtful that the Houston Astros will be
contending in this, they're final year in the Naitonal League for now.
But the offseason was really dominated by a couple teams, and one
of them, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, took the top spot in the
Shuffle Index for both batting and pitching. That's what adding
Albert Pujols and C.J. Wilson will do for you.
Top Five
1.
Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim - It's Albert Pujols. The
best player of the last twenty-five years, and, what might be a career
that will land him in the Top Five players of All-Time. So now
he's gonna take those prodigious batting skills and championship
banners to the west coast and help the Anaheim squad toward the same
lofty goals. And throw in Chris Iannetta just for fun. It's
gonna be a fun time in Los Angeles this season and with the additions
on both sides of the ball, a likely path to playoff baseball and World
Series contention.
2. Detroit Tigers - They got the second of the big boppers when
they signed Prince Fielder to that large contract and with a full
season of Delmon Young, plus Gerald Laird to help with their catching,
the Tigers should be the beast of the central division.
3. Miami Marlins - We're not as enamored with what the Marlins
have done as some other folks. Chalk that up to not being the
biggest Jose Reyes fans in the world. But that doesn't take away
from the fact that their additions make the the #3 squad in the batting
shuffle index. We just get the feeling that Miami, with that
great new stadium, might just have added this year's version of Carl
Crawford.
4. Philadelphia Phillies - It will be overshadowed by the
injuries to Ryan Howard and Chase Utley, but the addtiion of bench
players who will now need to play more such as Jim Thome, Ty Wigginton,
Lance Nix, et all, has added to their lineup in the absence of those
players. Won't likely be the difference maker if those players
don't come back soon, but with the best pitching staff in baseball,
they should contend with these additions.
5. San Fancisco Giants - Another squad that relies on its
pitching, but the addition of Melky Cabrera, at the expense of one of
those pitchers, might help the offense a bit.
Bottom Five
26.
Kansas City Royals - They've got a ton of good young players
moving into the majors from what many believe is the most talent rich
minor league system, so they were willing to depart with players such
as Melky Cabrera and watch those youngster play. But it landed
them down here.
27. Milwaukee Brewers - Lose Prince Fielder, get a spot in the bottom five.
28. Houston Astros - When you ship your two best players off to
contenders in the middle of last season and do nothing much to replace
them with, it's pretty hard to do well in the shuffle. They'll miss
Michael Bourn and Hunter Pence and will need to wait for awhile till
the young players they got back, i.e. Jonathan Singleton from the
Phillies for one, will make it through the minors. And they'lll be
playing the American League by then.
29. Chicago Cubs - When will Theo mount a winning team.
Not this season. Although he's bound to get there a whole lot faster
than the last group who kept adding players at high cost who weren't as
good as their salary.
30. New York Mets - Goodbye orange brick road. Goodbye Reyes and Beltran, too.
PEVA Shuffle Index - Pitching
Power Rankings
March
15, 2011 - Let's just give them props up front. The Angels
want to win now. And the addition of C.J. Wilson from their AL
West rivals in Texas certainly goes a significant way toward getting
that done.
Who has done the best in the PEVA Shuffle for pitchers.
Top Five
1.
Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim - Yes, Wilson from the Rangers is
the main reason, but the addition of well-traveled Latroy Hawkins could
help, too.
2. Washington Nationals - Another young squad that's improving
mostly from within, but the addition of Gio Gonzalez from the Billy
Beane factory in Oakland has landed them in the #2 Shuffle Index spot
for pitching, even as that young minor league pitching develops on its
own.
3. Cincinnati Reds - Mat Latos, Ryan Madson, and Sean Marshall.
4. Arizona Diamondbacks - They just made that Oakland call and
three pitchers came running. I thought Obama didn't approve the
Keystone pipeline.
5. Cleveland Indians - Willl Derek Lowe really help that much?
We don't know for sure. But it's a durable arm that's
starting to get a bit old and should help as the young pitchers in the
rotation round into form.
Bottom Five
26.
Seattle Mariners - The trade of Pineda for Montero to bolster the
poor offense cost them an emerging starter and landed them into the
bottom five.
27. Texas Rangers - Will Yu Darvish be able to give Texas the
production that C.J. Wilson has over the last several seasons.
It's one of the most interesting questions of the coming season,
but for now, since Darvish is an unknown as far as U.S. success, Texas
takes a hit on the pitching side.
28. Chicago White Sox - Some day the rest of baseball will
realize that Mark Buehrle was a better pitcher than he was given credit
for. Durable. Consistent. The White Sox will likely
find out just how good now that he's pitching for Ozzie in Miami.
29. San Diego Padres - I guess the thought process is that anybody can pitch in that Grand Canyon of a ballpark.
30. Oakland A's - See Arizona above. The pipeline from the
bay to the desert just keeps on taking the emerging pitchers from the
A's and shpping them south when they reach arbitration or free agency. And it lands them in the bottom spot in the pitching PEVA Shuffle Index for 2012.
