Pre-Season Power Rankings

1) Cincinnati Reds (NL) - 113 - 49 last season. Reds have been one of the strongest teams in NL since erffdog took over in season 2. They had the best record in the majors in seasons 5 and 6. They should be strong again this season. Is this finally their year to win the World Series?

2) Florida Marlins (NL) - 107 - 55 last season. The Marlins have won their division every season since the beginning. NL champs in seasons 2, 4, and 5, but fell short to the Deuce Droppers each of those seasons in the World Series.

3) Las Vegas Slobs (AL) - 95 - 67 last season. After losing in the AL championship game for four consecutive seasons to the Deuce Droppers they finally managed to win the AL and a World Series title. The Slobs were one of the strongest teams over the 2nd half of season 6. Can they win back to back titles?

4) Chicago Cubs (NL) - 103 - 59 last season. The Cubs have shown consistent improvement in each season since Josepaco took over in season 2. They won 103 games last season in one of the toughest divisions in the league. Don't be too shocked if the Cubs don't take the NL North title and the World Series this season.

5) Monterrey Corndogs (AL) - 91 - 71 last season. In edham55's third season with the Corndogs they won the AL South. They advanced to the AL championship series last season only to get knocked out by the Slobs.

6) Minnesota Twins (AL) - 95 - 67 last season. The Twins had the best record in the AL in season 6. They should be strong again this season.

7) Louisville Swingers (NL) - 103 - 59 last season. The Swingers had their best record last season winning 103 games. They have continually improvemed the last few seasons, and should be in the hunt for an NL title.

8) New York Yankees (AL) - 91 - 71 last season. The Yankees have been a picture of consistency the last two seasons winning 91 games in each of the last two seasons. They have dominated AL East since season 1.

9) Atlanta Pork N Beans (NL) - 85 -77 last season. Atlanta managed to knock out three of the best teams in the NL last season in the playoffs to win their first NL Championship. Was it luck or young team that finally came together?

10) Austin Deuce Droppers (AL) - 85 -77 last season. After winning four straight titles the Deuce Droppers choked at the end of last season and didn't make the playoffs. Is this seasons Deuce Droppers going to be the team that won four straight titles, or the one that blew a chance at the playoffs by choking at the end?
