MLB 11 The Show - Overall Team Rankings

[Dog]

My top 5 would be as follows:

#1 Red Sox
#2 Phillies
#3 Rangers
#4 Braves
#5 Yankees

[Jays20593]

I'm actually shocked the Jays are that high, but that's a pleasant surprise

Uhhh, the Giants beat the Phillies in the NLCS and beat Cliff Lee twice in the World Series. There's your explanation.

The Tigers are well deserving of 6th! They have a very good all around team. And they have a lot of star power (Cabrera, Verlander, Scherzer, Valverde, Jackson, etc).

Pretty good offense, potentially great rotation, and a lights out bullpen. Solid team all around!

My bad

it's not hard at all to see why the giants are rated higher than the phillies. it's the same reason they are better in real life, as well.

starters (including blanton) are overall just about equal to the giants starting 5.

giants have a huge advantage in the bullpen, with wilson and a mix of great relievers like affeldt, romo, lopez, casilla, etc. while the phillies pen seems like their weak link.

phillies are probably ranked better offensively, but not by much, considering they lost werth and guys like rollins and utley were not so good last year and are getting older.
