New Year's Position by Position Breakdown of The NL East

Tom RossiterDec 30, 2009

Every year I like to do a position by position ranking of the NL East. So here is this years, so far. I will give each team a ranking by using a 5-1 ranking by position, 5 being the best at the positions in the division, 1 being the worst, and tallying the totals at the end.

Catcher - McCann, Pudge, Baker, Blanco, Ruiz/Schneider

First Base - Howard, Dunn, Glaus, Cantu, Murphy

TOP NEWS

Washington Nationals v Los Angeles Angels
New York Yankees v. Chicago Cubs

Second Base - Utley, Uggla, Prado, Castillo, Harris

Short Stop - Hanley, Escobar, Rollins, Reyes, Gonzalez

Third Base - Zimmerman, Wright, Chipper, Polanco, Sanchez

Left Field - Bay, Ibanez, Coghlan, Willingham, Diaz

Center Field - Beltran, Victorino, McLouth, Morgan, Maybin

Right Field - Werth, Ross, Francoeur, Melky, Dukes

So offensively here are the totals:

Phillies: 29

Braves: 24

Mets: 24

For Starting Pitching, I will rank the entire 25 projected starters for the division. The best with 25, worst with 1.

25 Halladay, 24 Santana, 23 Johnson, 22 Jurrjens, 21 Hanson, 20 Hudson, 19 Hamels, 18 Happ, 17 Nolasco, 16 Marquis, 15 Kawakami,  14 Blanton,  13 Lowe, 12 Moyer, 11 Lannan, 10 Pelfrey, 9 Sanchez, 8  Maine, 7 Zimmerman, 6 Perez, 5 West, 4 Stammen, 3 Niese, 2 VandenHurk, 1 Olsen
