Power Rankings Part 3

1 (3) Las Vegas Slobs - The Slobs have been on fire this past week. They won series against some of the AL's best teams including the Corn Dogs and Deuce Droppers. The Slobs have a two game lead over the Royals in the AL West.

2 (5) Cincinnati Reds - The Reds appear to be back on track after, by Reds standards, a relatively mediocre start to the season. They had a relatively tough schedule this week, but they did take 2 of 3 against the Astros and sweep the Swingers in a 3 game series.

3 (1) Louisville Swingers - For the first time this season the Swingers have fallen from the number 1 spot. The Swingers drop could mostly be attributed to the series losses against the Cubs and Reds. The Swingers have a slim 1 game lead over the Astros in the NL South.

4 (8) Kansas City Royals - The Royals look for real. They currently have the AL's 2nd best record and are only 2 games back of the Slobs in the LA West.

5 (NR) Toronto Blue Jays - The Blue Jays are the biggest movers this week. They have won 5 in a row including the first of 3 against the Slobs. The Blue Jays have managed to extend their lead in the AL North to 5 games.

6 (9) Chicago Cubs - The Cubs are playing well, but you have to wonder how the loss of power hitting 1B Tony Suarez is going to effect this team. The Cubs are currently 3 games back of the Reds in the NL North.

7 (2) Houston Astros - The Astros were putting together a solid week until back to back series losses against the Mayhem and Indians. With the Astros rotation it should be only a matter of time before they start rising.

8 (NR) Monterrey Corn Dogs - The Corn Dogs move back into the rankings after dropping out last week. The Corn Dogs started off the week with a tough schedule that included the Splashdogs, Dirt Bags, Slobs, and Detroit. In those series they managed to go only 6 and 10. The CDs currently have a slim 2 game lead over the Tampa Bay Community College.

9 (10) Jacksonville Beach Boys - The Beach Boys move up one spot after a solid week. The Beach Boys are currently only 4 games back of the Swingers in the ultra competitive AL South.

10 (NR) New York Yankees - The Yankees have the biggest lead of any division leader at 10 games over the Senators. The Yankees had a solid week going until they met up with Tampa Bay and lost 3 of 4.

Dropped Out:
Atlanta Pork N Beans
San Diego Dirt Bags
