Power Rankings Part 3

1. Monterrey Corn Dogs - The Corn Dogs retain their #1 spot. They have struggled a bit in interleague play, going 2 - 4 against the Astros and Swingers. The CDs still have the best record in the league at 48 - 17, and one of the most dominating offenses in the league.

2. Las Vegas Slobs - The Slobs have been crushing the league over the past few week. They are on a 13 game winning streak, and now have a 6 game lead over the Royals in the AL West.

3. Cincinnati Reds - The Reds have been running over the competition over the past week. They are beginning to look like the Reds from last season. They managed to sweep the Swingers and Pork N Beans, and take 2 of 3 against the Pirates this past week.

4. Houston Astros - The Astros continue to impress. They took 2 of 3 against the number 1 ranked Corn Dogs. The Astros are only going to get better once slugger Rocky Spencer returns to the line up in 8 days.

5. Chicago Cubs - After struggling early in the season last seasons WS champs are returning to their winning ways. They have managed to pull within 3 games of the NL North leading Reds.

6. Pittsburgh Pirates - The Pirates have quietly put together one of the best records in the NL. Their offense has been spectacular this season. They currently have a comfortable 8 game lead over last seasons NL East champs the Pork N Beans.

7. Nashville Marlins - The Marlins are currently in a tie with the Swingers, 3 games back of the Astros in the NL South. They are playing pretty well right. They managed to take 2 of 3 against the Deuce Droppers.

8. Louisville Swingers - The Swingers seem to be dealing with consistency issues. They are no doubt one the top teams in the league, possibly the best team in the NL. If they can end the consistency issues they have a great shot at the best record in the NL.

9. Austin Deuce Droppers - The Deuce Droppers have been struggling since losing all star 2B Jim Edmonds. Their interleague schedule is challenging. It includes series against some the best in the NL - Astros, Swingers and Marlins.

10. Salt Lake City Multiple Spouses - The MSs have the unfortunate challenge in playing in the ultra-competitive AL North. They managed to take a 3 game lead in the division over the Blue Jays. The Barracudas and Detroit are only 4 and 5 games back respectively.
