Powers' Rankings: Week 12

By: Max Powers; Baseball Tri-Weekly

Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
1	1	2	Weymouth Shaddupu 9-2-0		Finally back to their winning ways, Shaddupu came close to beating Rio by a whole lot more than the final score would suggest. Week 12 Match Up: Quebec City
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
2	2	10	Tijuana Hispanics 5-3-3		Tijuana did just enough to tie last week, but they still have only one loss in their last 6 match ups. They may have lost the crown for now in the west, but they still belong 2nd in these rankings. Week 12 Match Up: Las Vegas
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
3	7	4	Quebec City Piglets 5-4-2		Wait, what, where did they come from? One minute they're down for the count, next they're back to where they're used to being: top fo the West. Only one loss in their last 7 match ups will help with that, including three straight wins. Week 12 Match Up: Weymouth
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
4	3	3	San Juan Guerites 5-5-1		The stumbling Guerites can't seem to get their footing. With only 2 wins in their last 8 match ups, and an overall showing against Quebec City in Week 11 that would rival some Bye Week stats, they'll need to get something going if they don't want to slip further. Week 12 Match Up: Santo Domingo
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
5	4	1	Dublin Snake Chasers 5-3-3		Phew, that was close. Inconsistent would be putting it lightly with Dublin. After shedding dead weight they barely make it past the worst team in the league. Next up, the second worst team in the league. Week 12 Match Up: Rakeville
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
6	8	6	Santo Domingo All-Star Factory 5-6-0		After putting up just 29 RBI against Rakeville in Week 9, Santo Domingo racked up 53 versus Weymouth, and a record tying 59 against Las Vegas in back-to-back weeks. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, Who are we dealing with here? Week 12 Match Up: San Juan
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
7	5	7	Rio de Janeiro Cristos 3-5-3		Maybe it wasn't health that was the problem after all. Since setting the R (57), HR (25), and RBI (59) record against LV in Week 9, Rio has averaged just 34 R, 8 HR, and 30 RBI in the past two weeks. Week 12 Match Up: Bridgewater
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
8	6	5	Las Vegas Doggs 4-5-2		What is it about this team that just forces opposing line ups to set offensive records? Week 12 Match Up: Tijuana
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
9	10	11	Bridgewater Weasels 5-5-1		Congratulations to Logan Morrison for winning the 2017 EHCC Home Run Derby. No, you don't get to play int he All-Star game, haven't done enough? Week 12 Match Up: Rio de Janeiro
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
10	9	9	Tokyo Omyoujis 5-5-1		The robots are malfunctioning, simple as that. The warranty has run out and their programming is going to shit. The humans won! Week 12 Match Up: San Fernando
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
11	11	7	Rakeville Rockets 4-5-2		Pedro Martinez is very disappointed in this pitching staff. Week 12 Match Up: Dublin
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
12	12	12	San Fernando Valley Jets 2-9-0		Halfway through the season, the Jets sit 11.5 games "up" on Rakeville for the top pick in the 2018 MaDraft. Week 12 Match Up: Tokyo
