Rating?
Julio Teheran is the Braves ace and one of the the top pitchers in the game. He was about to start in the all star game last year, but on this game he is only 2 1/2 stars. I really don't get it. I mean shae simmons played good last year but why is he 5 stars and Teheran is only 2 1/2?

I get why this bugs you...it kinda annoys me too...but that being said, I have plenty of 1 and 2 star players who are solid major league players...even quite good...so I take the stars with a certain "grain of salt"....

I agree completely. Devin Mesoraco had a 2 star rating with 4.5 potential last season, but this season he's just got 2 star potential, even after hitting .273/.359/.534 with 25 HRs in 114 games last season and cementing himself as a top-3 offensive catcher, even ahead of Molina and possibly Posey. He definitely deserves at least 3 star overall with 4.5 potential.
Another example is Joey Votto, who has had a rough 2 or 3 seasons but is still rated 5 stars. It could be attributed to injury, but the fact is that he isn't the 5 star player he once was. 4 stars is fair if you're giving Devin 2. Finally, Johnny Cueto. He was on the shortlist for the Cy Young, and I believe came runner-up, and yet has 4 star rating. He needs a 5-star rating, because he pitched much, much better than David Price, Stephen Strasburg, Masahiro Tanaka, Jon Lester, Madison Bumgarner, Cole Hamels, Jordan Zimmerman, Zack Greinke, Mat Latos, and Hyun-jin Ryu last season, even though all those pitchers have higher ratings than him. |

This is why I use 20-80 number ranking instead of stars. It's much more granular.
