Top 20 NL ERA+ Leaders
1. Chris Carpenter - 191
2. Tim Lincecum - 186
3. Matt Cain - 173
4. Adam Wainwright - 170
5. J.A. Happ - 164
6. Dan Haren - 163
<b>7. Randy Wells - 152</b>
8. Jair Jurjjends - 145
9. Wandy Rodriguez - 143
10. Clayton Kershaw - 143
11. Javier Vazquez - 139
12. Josh Johnson - 136
13. Ubaldo Jimenez - 136
14. Johan Santana - 135
15. Joel Pineiro - 131
<b>16. Ted Lilly - 131</b>
17. Randy Wolf - 129
18. Jason Marquis - 126
19. Doug Davis - 120
20. Yovani Gallardo - 119
Note: Zambrano is 22nd at 113 and Dempster is 31st at 106.
Conclusion - Our pitching has been fantastic. I don't think I ever give Ted Lilly enough credit for what he's done over the years. I'm surpirsed to see Doug Davis and Marquis on this list. JA Happ will win rookie of the year b/c he pitches for a playoff team. Many of the guys on here are quite young.
Top 20 NL OPS+ Leaders
1. Albert Pujols - 191
2. Adrian Gonzalez - 162
3. Prince Fielder - 160
4. Hanley Ramirez - 155
5. Adam Dunn - 155
6. Chase Utley - 151
7. Josh Willingham - 144
8. Pablo Sandoval - 144
9. Ryan Braun - 144
10. Justin Upton - 141
11. Lance Berkman - 139
12. Mark Reynolds - 138
13. Joey Votto - 136
14. Ryan Howard - 136
15. Todd Helton - 135
16. Matt Kemp - 134
17. Ryan Zimmerman - 133
<b>18. Derrek Lee - 133</b>
19. Andre Ethier - 133
20. David Wright - 132
Note: The next Cub on the list is Fuk at 33rd with a 116 OPS+ and Bradley with at 37th with a 112 OPS+.
Conclusion: It is really amazing how much better Pujols is than anyone else. Adam Dunn is having an amazing year. Aramis OPS+ is 133. He didn't qualify for the ranking b/c he had too few plate appearances. Theriot's OPS+ is 88, which is pretty bad considering he isn't a plus defender. Fontenot's OPS+ is 71, which is the sixth worst of any player with 300+ plate appearances. Fox's OPS+ is 188 and Baker's is 124. Soriano's OPS+ is 86, again quite bad.
