First Half Pitcher Rankings Using Rotisserie Scoring

The MLB All-Star break is upon us and I felt like I needed to update my rotisserie rankings.

Yasiel Puig Has Turned Into A Supernova

I would be lying to you if I say I don’t love Yasiel Puig. I do. I’ve love Puig since he entered the league all the way back to 2013 (time flies!)

Old-timers hate Puig, though. His antics. His demeanor. His non-existent respect for the game. Whatever. Puig is a major leaguer (and has been for six and a half years now) for a reason. He knows baseball. And lately, more than ever, he’s been on a tear.
