“Ads are the cave art of the twentieth century.” – Marshall McLuhan
Ranked the Top 200 a few days ago in preparation for a draft that ignores SB (H/R/HR/RBI/AVG/OBP & W/HLD/SV/K/ERA/WHIP).
Haven’t updated it since the draft to reflect the Motte injury, Jose Fernandez’ promotion, etc., but here it is as a matter of record.
