i didn't add in honorable mentions.. those would be Ibanez, Lidge, and Madson I suppose.
It's really hard to distinguish whether a relief pitcher is better than an every day guy, unless of course he is a guy like Mo.
Also had a bit of trouble distinguishing between Ruiz, Polonco, and Victorino, but I'm very confident with putting Ruiz ahead of them. He calls an awesome game and he's a great fielder, not to mention he's turning into one of the most clutch guys on the team.

Not 1 other team can even think about their closer as #1. Since he is older, Cano can probably go ahead of him but he has to be in the top 3 until he shows signs of normality!

3. Utley
4. Lee
5. Hamels
6. Oswalt
7. Polanco
8. Victorino
9. Lidge
10. Ruiz
Rollins is a bum..until he turns it around he doesn't deserve to be on this list. I agree with your thoughts on Ruiz, I love him, but in terms of talent I gotta put victorino and polanco ahead of him. And Lidge will be nasty this year, he ended last year with 18 saves and a 0.7 era..when he's healthy he's nasty!

jimmy may suck sometimes, but it's been proven that he's the key to success for this team. when he's playing good, the phillies win.
now, if they move him out of the 1 spot, he wont be as important.
yeah dont get me wrong i like jimmy, his potential has always been there but hitting 250 the last two seasons is pathetic, especially for a leadoff hitter..and ur right they always say that stat that when he scores the phils record is really good, hope he can hit atleast 275 this year

wow your quite the braves fan...but who the f is heywood?? never heard of that guy lol stupid i guess he's soooo good that u forget his name
and how do you not put prado on this list? braves fans are smart!!
Add the fact that Jones is in the top 10 at all. This isn't a career achievement list. I wouldn't put him in there because who knows, for sure, if he'll ever play again. My best Braves top 10 would be
McCann
Heyward
Hudson
Hanson
Uggla
Prado
Venters
Lowe
Kimbrel
Freeman/Minor (based on upside alone)
