put your league scoring system into a rating simulator. My guess is Gagne finished 1st overall. As a matter of fact, Im willing to say there are more pitchers in your top 10 then hitters. Am I right?
In that points system which would have me think that Gagne definatly cracks the top 10. I think more Pitchers would be in your top 10 with that scoring.
I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. -Crash Davis

gagne was the best last year, but he wont repeat those numbers, gagne is more in the 8 spot as far as our league goes, closers really dont get that much more value because the save being 10 points is offset by an inning pitched being 2 points, A Rod is #1 and Prior is the #1 pitcher on our league projections
Reyes and guerrero, the two most blessed players in the league, not to mention the most fun to watch
Gagne would probably be the #1 pick. All those saves, and hardly any earned runs, with respectable K's (Best K/9 in history). He loses out by not getting a lot fo IP, but I still think he'd be the best. But as was already suggested, if this were run through a simulator, it'd be easy to tell who the top players were.

i put my points league scoring (similar to these) into the simulator at rototimes and came up with
gagne
schilling
prior
pujols
wood
bonds
pedro
helton
r. johnson
b. wagner
a-rod (falls to the 11 spot in total points)
That's a score simulator, not a rating simulator so...6 of the top ten scorers were pitchers, but that's not how i'd draft them.
If gagne, prior, or pedro falls to me late in round one, i'll take them. otherwise i'm still filling my infield first 'cause the pitcher position is deep

We used the same exact scoring system last year. This is the way the top-point scorers finished:
I was actually thinking of raising our Innings Pitched to 2.3 or 2.4 points just to get the pitchers more on par with the hitters. Plus this would make starters a little more valuable than relievers.

That is odd. I figured there would be more closers in the top 10.
There will come a day when Barry Bonds leaves baseball, and everything about the game will be the better for it.
