2012 Preseason Talent Ranking

This ranking system was based on the quality of talent on each team based on projected WAR.  The lowest team, Houston, was set at zero while the highest team, New York Yankees, was set as 100. 



It looks like it might be another rough year here in Baltimore.  Baltimore came in as the 26th most talented season.  The next best AL East team, Toronto, came in at 16th.

Just out of curiousity, what is the source of your projections?

WAR determined from performance projections on Fangraphs along with my own estimation of playing time.
