In all fairness, it just seems like if Sandoval is rated at C, Inge (who qualifies in more leagues, e.g. the ESPN position eligibility format) almost has to be as well, no? I wonder where he would rank….between 5 and 10? Yikes, what has happened to Russ Martin. What a mess, but I guess that’s what happens when you beat your young C like a rented mule for years on end.
I thought Sandoval was high, Ianetta low & Molina (personal underrated fav) deserves his own Tier (above Posada).
Nothing to argue over, but still noted when I went down the list.
Ya, I should have ranked Inge (late second tier), and R. Martin has simply been abused.
I actually wanted to rank Iannetta higher, but he has disappointed me – I am highly invested so I hope he responds in the 2nd half. Still a lot of upside.
Sandoval has a .964 OPS (and four steals). To be honest, even as a Giants fan, I was skeptical through the first two months (hated his free swinging), but at this point, I say No. 2 is well deserved.
Does doumit belong higher yet?
For sure. He’s still a decent sized injury risk, but now that he’s proven to be completely over the wrist problem, Doumit could safely be placed toward the very top of the second tier.
