SI Pre-Season MLB Player Rankings Not Close

Interesting chatter on the DOB blog…who’s in the top 50? One guy listed his top 50. SI ranked the players before the season, with pitchers ranked separately from hitters…based on projected performance. The projections were off, in many cases…

27=Andruw, 29=Tex, 38=Chipper, 51=McCann, 96=Edgar, 120=Frenchy, 193=Johnson, 205=Diaz, 212=Thorman, 248=Langerhans, 396=Prado

13=Smoltz, 38=Wickman, 72=James, 80=Hudson, 106=Dotel, 131=Redman, 133=Gonzalez, 144=Soriano, 251=Cormier

Got involved watching the Clark Howard special last night while searching for the remote…after seeing the Wright HR we didn’t watch much else of the game, but saw Frenchy make the last out. Beltran made a few good catches.

Keep Edgar and trade Yunel for Milledge? Of the two youngsters, who’ll have a better career? DOB seemed to have the same reservations about Milledge…you wouldn’t think JS would make such a high-profile deal with the Mets anyway. Nice support on his blog for Chipper yesterday, regarding him being among the all-time best 3B.
