Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
1	1	2	Weymouth Shaddupu 6-0-0		The Poo have tied their best start of the season with a 6-0 run. Just last season, Weymouth started the first 6 weeks undefeated, with an almost identical overall record (40-15-5). A win versus rival Doggs should cement a new team record of 7 straight to begin the season. Week 7 Match Up: Las Vegas
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
2	3	1	Dublin Snake Chasers 2-1-3		Dublin really doesn't deserve to be the second team on this list....but neither does anyone else. So that one single loss counts for something. Week 7 Match Up: Santo Domingo
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
3	2	3	San Juan Guerites 3-3-0		You lost to Rakeville? We all have bad weeks, but Rakeville? Week 7 Match Up: Bridgewater
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
4	4	10	Tijuana Hispanics 3-2-1		Tijuana sits in the bottom 3 of more than half of the hitting categories in the EHCC, including "leading" the league in lowest batting average. That's going to require a lot of H2H luck each week to be sustainable all season. Week 7 match Up: Rio de Janeiro
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
5	8	7	Rio de Janeiro Cristos 2-2-2		Rio shares a top spot in the West with Dublin. At this point, that's like being proud to be sharing a double fudgicle with your German Sheppard. Pretty sure that German Sheppard is getting the whole thing, whether you like it or not. Week 7 Match Up: Tijuana
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
6	5	5	Las Vegas Doggs 2-2-2		Vegas is always trying to make that blockbuster move to catch the eye of the league. Losing to Bridgewater is also a good way to catch their eye, so they're 2 for 2. Week 7 Match Up: Weymouth
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
7	6	4	Quebec City Piglets 2-3-1		Is Jake Arrieta the answer? Week 7 Match Up: Tokyo
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
8	7	6	Santo Domingo All-Star Factory 2-4-0		The only team to go from playoff spot to outlier this past week. Just shows it only takes one week to shake things up, and that .500 might not be good enough this season. Week 7 Match Up: Dublin
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
9	9	11	Bridgewater Weasels 3-3-0		There's something in the water in Bridgewater apparently. After starting off 0-3, they ran off 3 wins in a row, albeit against RAK, SFV, and LV. Hey, wins are wins, even if they happen just to remind us they can. Week 7 Match Up: San Juan
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
10	10	7	Rakeville Rockets 2-3-1		Was Rakeville's win against San Juan something to build on, or simply false hope? Two weeks against TKO and SFV may help determine that. Week 7 Match Up: San Fernando Valley
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
11	11	9	Tokyo Omyoujis 3-3-0		They keep winning, but the voters are not impressed. Just doing enough to keep them above San Fernando. A win versus Rakeville in two weeks might sway them however, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. Week 7 Match Up: Quebec City
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
12	12	12	San Fernando Valley Jets 1-5-0		Attendance hit a high point for the season, as Weymouth transplants in San Fernando Valley took over the stadium. It didn't hurt that SFV had a Free Kayak Day promotion on Thursday. Week 7 Match Up: Rakeville
