    2007 Player Rankings: Closers

    For closers the list includes the top 30 in Saves. Only difference from middle relievers is I do take into account Win Shares. 2004 1. Brad Lidge 15. Octavio Dotel 30. Shawn Chacon 2005 1. Mariano Rivera 15. Jason Isringhausen 30. Keith Foulke 2006 1. Jonathan Papelbon 15. Francisco Cordero 30. Derrick Turnbow 2007 1. J.J. Putz, Mariners 2. Takashi Saito, Dodgers 3. Jonathan Papelbon, Red Sox 4. Joe Nathan, Twins 5. Bobby Jenks, White Sox 6. Joakim Soria, Royals 7. Matt Capps, Pirates 8. Manny Corpas, Rockies 9. Francisco Cordero, Brewers 10. Mariano Rivera, Yankees 11. Jeremy Accardo, Blue Jays 12. Huston Street, A's 13. Billy Wagner, Mets 14. Jason Isringhausen, Cardinals 15. Francisco Rodriguez, Angels 16.

Bob Wickman, Braves/Diamondbacks
  3. For middle relievers, the first two years I took the top 60 in games pitched and then last year I did the top 60 in Holds. This time around I tried to get a combination of both and put an arbitrary number of at least 70 games pitched or at least 15 Holds to work with at first and purely by accident I ended up with exactly 60 relievers. This of course excludes those who will appear on the Closers list. I take into account six statistical categories: Component ERA, K/BB Ratio, WHIP, VORP, Fielding Independent Pitching (FIP), and Pitching Runs Created. 2004 1. Tom Gordon 30. Jim Mecir 60. John Rielding 2005 1. Justin Duchscherer 30. Duaner Sanchez 60. Dan Kolb 2006 1. Cla Meredith 30. Francisco Rodney 60. Ray King 2007 1. Rafael Betancourt, Indians 2. Heath Bell, Padres 3.

    2007 Player Rankings: Catchers

    It's that time of year again where I tell you who were best and worst players by position in MLB for the past season, in case you already forgot what did happen this past season. Starting with position players I will rank the Top 30 players in plate appearances at each position, based on the player's primary position for the season. For the position players I take into account five statiscal categories: OPS+, VORP, Equivalent Average, Runs Created (ballpark adjusted per hardballtimes.com), and Win Shares. The rankings are based purely on what the player did during the 2007 season as past performance and potential future value are not taken into account. This year for each position I'll repost who I had as the best, the most average, and the worst by position from 2004-2006. Catchers 2004 1. Ivan Rodriguez 15. Gregg Zaun 30. Chad Moeller 2005 1. Victor Martinez 15. Mike Matheny 30. Chris Snyder 2006 1. Joe Mauer 15. A.J. Pierzynski 30. Jose Molina 2007 1. Victor Martinez, Indians 2. Jorge Posada, Yankees 3. Russell Martin, Dodgers 4. Joe Mauer, Twins 5. Josh Bard, Padres 6. Brian McCann, Braves 7. Jason Varitek, Red Sox 8. Kenji Johjima, Mariners 9. Chris Snyder, Diamondbacks 10. Bengie Molina, Giants 11. Carlos Ruiz, Phillies 12. Gregg Zaun, Blue Jays 13. Ivan Rodriguez, Tigers 14. Ramon Hernandez, Orioles 15. Yadier Molina, Cardinals 16. Ronny Paulino, Pirates 17. A.J. Pierzynski, White Sox 18. Paul Lo Duca, Mets 19. John Buck, Royals 20. Brian Schneider, Nationals 21. Jarrod Saltalamacchia, Braves/Rangers 22. Johnny Estrada, Brewers 23. Miguel Olivo, Marlins 24. Yorvit Torrealba, Rockies 25. Gerald Laird, Rangers 26. Brad Aumsus, Astros 27. Jason Kendall, A's/Cubs 28. Dioner Navarrao, Devil Rays 29. David Ross, Reds 30. Michael Barrett, Cubs/Padres
