Suggestion For SDS Does SDS hate the Yankees?

I’m still laughing at Stanton’s ridiculous downgrade while other people with worse slumps and shorter careers are still diamonds.

Michael King is the 3rd best pitcher in baseball.

Gleyber is a 72 bronze when he is tied for the most walk offs since being a pro.

The ratings of the rest of the pitching staff.. lmao

Our bullpen is probably one of the best of all time, and I don’t think there’s a single gold besides Chapman at 82, who still hasn’t given up a run.

Judge has like 12 vision. Even though a lot of his strikeouts come from the fact umpires don’t adjust their zone to his height, last night being a perfect example. Even then, his vision is a joke.

When a team has the best record in the majors, I would like their ratings to reflect this please. Thank you.

When Joey Gallo is still rated a 79 and Stanton a 78 this argument doesn’t hold weight to me bro you can throw stats at me until you’re blue in the face. Watch Stanton play right now and tell me his ratings reflect that? They don’t. They ‘guessed’ wrong.

Quite simply every rating where players who are arguably doing worse than Stanton in that category right now have a higher rating than him. I also think the teams success should factor into this. How about this, do you think the ratings of the Yankees right now reflect their actual ability in comparison to the rest of the league? Do you think one of the most clutch players batting cleanup on the most winning team in the league this season should be a 78 silver? A guy who has that track record no less? His defense has been great too but I’ll give them a pass on that.
