I do this exercise each year at the 40, 60, and finally the 80 game mark, full 34 man all star rosters for both leagues. Each team represented, 21 position players, 13 pitchers.
I'm only interested in this season's play, it's an evaluation of the best players so far in 2016.
I also do this opportunity to make updated postseason predictions. These are they.
