1)New York Highlanders (97-44) (LW – 1) No movement from last week. Team went 15-5 during the week. [Up 1 spot from the first power rankings.] (Is there anything this team can’t do?)
3rd Hitting/ 1st Pitching/ 4th Fielding
2)Minnesota Monkey Wranglers (88-53) (LW - 2) No Movement from last week. Team went 14-6 during the week. [Up 2 spots from the first power rankings.] (Hope the team is happy with the 2nd seed in the playoffs because it would be a miracle for them to get the number 1 spot.)
6th Hitting/ 8th Pitching/ 1st Fielding
3)Buffalo Soldiers (88-53) (LW – 4) Up 1 spot from last week. Team went 14-6 during the week. [No movement from the first power rankings.] (Has the best record in the National League and will most likely have the number 1 seed heading into the playoffs.)

4)Montgomery Burns (72-49) (LW - 3) Down 1 spot from last week. Team went 11-9 during the week. [Up 10 spots from the first power rankings.] (The Burns dropped to the second best offense in the league this week. Is this a sign the offense could be cooling down?)
2nd Hitting/ 18th Pitching/ 32nd Fielding
5)Fargo Fart Knockers (81-60) (LW - 10) No movement from last week. Team went 12-8 during the week. [Up 11 spots from the first power rankings.] (It’s scary that Fargo is still only second in the American League North.)

THE GREAT TEAMS
6)Toledo Holy Fargin' Schnicks (77-64) (LW - 7) Up 1 spot from last week. Team went 11-9 during the week. [Up 5 spots from the first power rankings.] (Toledo will make the playoffs, it’s just a question if they can win there division as well.)

7)Pittsburgh Pisces (76-65) (LW - 8) Up 1 spot from last week. Team went 10-10 during the week. [Up 10 spots from the first power rankings.] (Playing in the toughest division is a big reason Pittsburgh is a great team.)

ABOVE AVERAGE TEAMS

THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD TEAMS
11)Nashville Raccoons (72-69) (LW - 9) Down 2 spots from last week. Team went 9-11 during the week. [Down 5 spots from the first power rankings.] (Something needs to happen soon for the Raccoons or they could miss the playoffs.)

12)New Britain Fighting Beer Drinkers (71-70) (LW – 18) Up 6 spots from last week. Team went 12-8 during the week. [Down 2 spots from the first power rankings.] (17 games out of there division but they still have a very good chance at the wildcard berth.)

13)Jackson Pollocks (60-61) (LW - 19) Up 6 spots from last week. Team went 12-8 during the week. [Up 11 spots from the first power rankings.] (Know the team is probably named after the famous artist Jackson Pollock, but you get a fish logo, enjoy.)

14)Vancouver Whitecaps (72-69) (LW – 12) Down 2 spots from last week. Team went 8-12 during the week. [Down 9 spots from the first power rankings.] (Well the bad Vancouver team showed up last week, maybe the good Vancouver team will come back this week?)

THE BELOW AVERAGE TEAMS

16)Tampa Bay Maelstrom (70-71) (LW - 14) Down 2 spots from last week. Team went 8-12 during the week. [Down 3 spots from the first power rankings.] (Going 8-12 during the week probably killed any chance at the playoffs for Tampa.)

17)Chicago Gangsters (66-75) (LW - 13) Down 4 spots from last week. Team went 6-14 during the week. [Up 4 spots from the first power rankings.] (It doesn’t matter what division you play in, going 6-14 during the week is bad.)

23) Norfolk NAVY SEALs (67-74) (LW - 21) Down 2 spots from last week. Team went 10-10 during the week. [Up 7 spots from the first power rankings.] (If the Navy Seals would have played less then 49 one-run games this season already, who knows what the season would have been.)

THE WISH I WAS HIGHER TEAMS
24) Salem Squirrel Monkeys (61-80) (LW - 24) No movement from last week. Team went 10-10 during the week. [Down 6 spots from the first power rankings.] (26-44 away from home is what killed the Squirrel Monkeys season)

THE SOMETHING HAS GONE WRONG TEAMS
25) Jacksonville Junk Yard Dogs (64-77) (LW - 26) Up 1 spot from last week. Team went 12-8 during the week. [Down 3 spots from the first power rankings.] (Would have been nice to see the team play like this all season long.)

26) Scottsdale Sidewinders (64-77) (LW - 25) Down 1 spot from last week. Team went 9-11 during the week. [Down 7 spots from the first power rankings.] (Giving up 5.5 runs per game, has really hurt them all season long.)

THE ALMOST HOPELESS TEAMS
27) Trenton Thunder (62-79) (LW - 27) No Movement from last week. Team went 11-9 during the week. [Up 2 spots from the first power rankings.] (No matter how they finish the season, they have improved from last year.)

THE HOPELESS TEAMS
32) Charleston Battery (53-88) (LW - 32) No Movement from last week. Team went 11-9 during the week. [No movement from the first power rankings.]. (Best week of the season last week for the team. Could they finally move out of the last spot in the next power rankings?)
