You are looking at one .

Seriously, that looks right about what I would expect given how the 20-80 scale is used in MLB.

Think about it this way. Assuming you are playing a 30-team league, that means this chart is accounting for 37+ players per team.

There are only 26 on a roster at a time. So, you are looking at 330(ish) players on your scale that shouldn't even be on a roster (if not for injuries and/or situational reasons).

That covers almost everyone 40 and below on your grid.

45's are your borderline MLB players. Backups, platoon players, non-back of the bullpen relievers, 5th starters, etc. Generally, guys who are major leaguers but their value is depth or situational.

50+ is where you get into the solid MLB players. 50 = average in terms of overall playing time, not in the number of players that are actually on a roster.
