'Power Rankings Guru': Sox Move Up Three Spots To #3
This week's rankings by The Power Rankings Guru website (which tracks and averages all of the major media rankings) places the Red Sox is the third spot overall—a 3-spot improvement over last week. The two Windy City entrants (Cubbies #1, Pale Hose #2) remain at the top of the list, with the Washington Nationals in fourth place behind Boston. The Orioles come in next at #5, while the New York Metropolitans slot in at number six. The Red Sox now have an average ranking of "3.6", with the highest ranking being "2". The Rangers, Mariners, Giants and Dodgers round out the Top 10. The Bronx Embalmers are still firmly ensconced in the nether regions of the list—at number nineteen out of a possible thirty. As was the case last week, the Twinkies are the lowest rated American League team, and the Atlanta Braves finished at the overall bottom of the list. You can see all the Week Seven rankings HERE.
