I came home from a thoroughly entertaining goal scoring bonanza victory of the Penguins to check out Bucs Dugout. Obviously very little activity until probably spring training. I hope this posting is not a colossal lemon(Best and worst free agent signings). Hopefully, more open to debate(McCutchen and NH bashing). I saw this on ESPN. All six divisions are broken down into a point system. There are rankings of all 8 position players, 5 man pitching staffs, bullpens, closers, and intangibles produce 16 rankings and a total point system. Without reading, where are the Pirates in the NL Central?

Pirates position rankings going by an official scorecard 5 4 3 4 3 3 1 4(Easy choice for number 1). The 2011 Pirates stellar pitching rotation rankings are 6 6 6 5 6(List your 2012 rotation including AJ Burnett).

Going by statistics, I believe the rankings are mostly solid. My Changes: Alfonzo Soriano number 3 in left fielders. Jay Bruce number 1 in right fielders. Every teams starting rotation. Comments: Agree, Disagree, Biggest Travesties. Please list your 2012 Pirate starting rotation with AJ Burnett. http://espn.go.com/blog/sweetspot/post/_/id/20589/nl-central-showdown-position-rankings
