Previous Ranking: 5
Record: 67 - 34
3. Austin Deuce Droppers - The DD's are in a tough battle with the Corn Dogs for the AL South. They won the first 2 games of a 3 game series with the Corn Dogs. The DD's are hoping the addition of Victor Blanco will help their struggling bullpen.

Record: 63 - 38
4. Monterrey Corn Dogs - The CD's refuse to let up on Austin in the AL South. The CD's offense has been stellar this season. They are leading the AL in homeruns, 2nd in batting average, 2nd in RBIs, and and 2nd in runs scored.

Record: 62 - 39
5. Lousiville Swingers - The Swingers are working hard to keep up with the Marlins in the NL South. They are currently 5 games back of the Marlins, and tied with the Astros for 2nd in the division.
Previous Ranking: 6
Record: 62 - 39
6. Houston Astros - The Astros have fallen off a bit after rising to number 2 in the rankings. They are currently 5 games back of the Marlins in the NL South. An injury to the Astros young RF Sid Bryant has definitely impacted the team. The loss of Bryant could have playoff implications if they are unable to find a suitable replacement.

10. New York Yankees - The Yankees have been one of the streakiest teams in the league. The Yankees are currently engaged in a 3 games series against their division rivals the Flurries.

If the Yankees struggle in those 3 series, they could lose the division lead to the Flurries who are only 3 games back.
