Yeah the Yankees are right there, but I don't quite get why Judge keeps going 90+, every year, this was his first MVP caliber season since 2017.
I think the most expensive division will be
NL East
Degrom
Scherzer
Marte
Harper
Olson
Acuna
Soto -

SotoNope in my opinion it will be the AL West yet again, Trout + Ohtani could cost upwards of 350k ( Trout 250k possibly, and Ohtani 100k because of his MVP year and people will want him)
Heres how i see it going
AL West (Angels, Rangers, Astros)
NL West (Dodgers *they might cost upwards of 500k lots of diamonds, Padres)
NL East (Mets, Phillies, Braves)
AL East (Yankees, Red Sox, Blue Jays, a few diamond Rays)
NL Central (because of the Cardinals and Brewers)
AL Central (White Sox, Indians) -

NL Central (because of the Cardinals and Brewers)
AL Central (White Sox, Indians)I freely admit you are probably right and I honestly don't quite understand some of the rating process. How was Kirby Yates a diamond all year when he hasn't pitched since 2019?
I'm sure Trout will be the ultimate gate keeper as that's apparently a given every year.I've heard the rating system is supposed to account for the last 3 years. If that is the case, the ultimate gatekeeper and highest rated player should be Juan Soto whose fWar over the last 3 years is 14.2 to Trout's 13.2. Scherzer should also be higher as he posted a 13.7. Of course if Trout had remained healthy he probably would have eclipsed those numbers but he didn't.
With that said, again, I am sure you are right, I would be shocked if anyone is rated higher than Trout to start the season. I still think the amount of 90+ diamonds could very easily include 5-6 players from the NL East: Scherzer, Degrom, Acuna, Olson, Harper and Soto.
I don't see anyone on the Astros, Rangers, A's or Mariners starting above 90. As of the end of this season nobody on any of those teams including new editions like Semien and Seager was over 89.
I am curious how the rating system works and how certain cards get to be so much higher in value than others. Is it mostly based on previous years on the Show and who is in higher demand as a card or is it all based on performance on the field and how far back does it go?

I know who it won't be. The Orioles, per usual.

Oh yeah, you're probably right, Salvy will be a diamond. Do you think Ketel Marte, Joey Votto or Cedric Mullins will start as diamonds since they ended that way or do they kind of reset a bit since Votto and Marte had a rebound year and Mullins a Breakout.
Also, the Tigers may not start with a diamond. I think they'll have a sneaky good team and may after a few roster updates but to start I don't see anyone as a diamond.

I think of those 3 Marte probably has the best chance to start diamond. Since he was a diamond at points in 19, 20, and 21. Mullins definitely will start gold. Votto is the wild card though they could go either way with him.
As my tigers go, Baez will be the only gold to start off with. Candelario's live series will get the shaft yet again. By season's end they will have at least 5-6 golds and perhaps a diamond(Baez being the most realistic chance followed by Mize and Skubal with massive breakout seasons)

True, but so will the D-backs with Ketel Marte.

Bryant may be pricey.

I will be buying 1,000 LS Tim Anderson's per usual, in anticipation of his inevitable gold-to-diamond upgrade. He will open at an 84 gold, then will be an 85 after the first roster update. BOOKMARK THIS POST for your future reference.

Angels #1 (7th year in a row)
Dodgers #2
Mets #3
Braves #4
Nationals #5 -
