Why Only Righty Pitchers Dropping SDS?

So we now have:

1. Dustin May (97)
2. Saberhagen (97)
3. Greinke (97)
4. Sixto Sanchez (97)

Not to mention:

5. Felix from Inning Boss (96, Righty)

Not to mention:

6. Dibble (95 Righty, CP)
7. Rodney (92, Righty, CP)

Why is Jake McGee the only 95+ lefty reliever, and why is Cole Hamels the highest Lefty starter at 96 when we have 8 righties at 96+ (Howard, Patino, and Cy Young) and 4 at 97!?

tl;dr - Why do we now have 4 righty SP's at 97 overall but no lefties, along with an abundance of righties via inning bosses and relievers.

Follow up question, can anyone definitively rank these 4 in terms of value for their price?:

1. Dustin May (97) 86K
2. Saberhagen (97) 36K
3. Greinke (97) 65K
4. Sixto Sanchez (97) 68K

I have 300K stubs and want to add another arm. Think I might sell Felix, too hard to control....

Can't say, I haven't seen the 97 Sanchez. I thought it was the 86 at first.

Sorry I'd prefer something better than an 8:1 ratio for handedness on 96+ rated pitchers. You seem to like to complain about others complaining.

Top 10 Career WAR Pitchers: only 2 lefties. (that's an 8:2 ratio for those a little fuzzy on the math.)
Top 50 Career WAR pitchers: only 8 lefties (6.25:1)

It appears your argument is not with SDS, but with reality.

You do realize an 8:1 ratio, and an 8:2 (which equals 4:1) ratio is literally a 50% difference, right?

(Seems your perception of percentages is a little fuzzy)

To put it into a third grade, simpler level for you:

Going from 8:1 (11% lefty) to 4:1 (25% lefty) is more than a double the % we had before.

To put it into first grade level for you:

A hitter batting .200 avg would go to .300 if you added a 50% increase.

It appears my issue is not with math, but SDS's lack of lefty options in the market.

P.s. - Why use all time WAR to justify the lack of lefty's. Sixto and May are both PROSPECTS. Plenty of future stars and fake cards SDS could use to put up a higher tier diamond lefty.

You set the weird parameters of the argument and managed to lose TWICE.
