I don’t know why I’ve never done this before, but I was messing around with the results of this week’s CBS Sports Fantasy Experts Draft and had the bright idea to sum the results by major league team. I’m not claiming any breakthrough here, but the results are fun:
TEAM …..$ Spent
PHI …..260
ATL …..242
MIA …..240
WAS ……228
MIL ……226
CIN ……225
ARI ……222
COL ……206
SF …..201
LAD …..197
STL …..194
NYM …..146
SD …..139
CHC …..135
PIT …..131
HOU …..116
It’s not looking good for Houston fans, and Mets, Padres, Cubs and Pirates fans shouldn’t gloat.
I used to do this for fun all the time. You do have to prorate the hitter/pitcher values to make them 50/50 (not the 70/30 these guys get paid in Roto) to get a truer picture.
