9/25/10 Draft “race” update: #7 pick awaits.

leave a comment

Washington’s recent 4 game winning streak, including 3 of 4 from Houston, has probably taken them out of the race for the #3 pick.  As it stands, we have the #7 overall pick, just behind Arizona’s compensation pick.  They now sit 3 games “behind” for the #6 pick and 3 games “ahead” for the #8 pick.

Order Team Wins Losses winning pct
1 Pittsburgh 53 100 0.346
2 Seattle 58 95 0.379
3 Baltimore 61 92 0.399
4 Arizona 62 92 0.403
5 Cleveland 63 91 0.409
6 KC 63 90 0.412
6a Arizona
7 Washington 66 88 0.429
8 Chi cubs 69 84 0.451
9 Milwaukee 72 81 0.471
9a San Diego
10 Houston 74 80 0.481

In the 11-14 spots are the high-payroll failures from the 2010 season; LA Dodgers, LA Angels and NY Mets (though the biggest payroll failure this year has to be the Chicago Cubs).
