July SP Rankings

These rankings are based on value for the remainder of the 2008 season.   Value as a keeper is not factored into the rankings.   This is to be used as a guide to who to target in a trades and who will over/under perform for the remainder of the season in comparison to the portion of the season that has already taken place.
