I’ll cover the entire 40 man roster and will split it between position players and pitchers (generally 20 or so guys on each list). Each week the list will change based on the past week’s performance - but also taking into account their performance year to date.
These rankings were compiled with the help of MLB stats, FanGraphs, misc. data, personal opinion, scribblings on Cam Bedrosian’s Five Guys wrappers, and some fairy dust I found hidden in Matt Shoemaker’s beard.
Summary
39 runs is a great week for the offense and included 9 home runs by 8 different Angels. Unfortunately all those runs turned into only 4 wins in 7 games. Only one regular player (Simmons) hit under .260 over the past week.

Rene Rivera, 60 day DL
