Because of the long weekend and a lot of personal hubbub on my end in the past 24 hours, the stars just didn’t properly align for a full-blown Power Rankings this week. But, considering that all you people like to do is moan and/or cheer the rankings themselves rather than comment about the little blurbs, I figure this will get us through the week.
As always, last week’s rankings are in parenthesis.
THE BATMAN TEAMS (Awesome, and don’t you dare suggest otherwise)
1. Phillies (1)
2. Yankees (3)
3. Red Sox (2)
4. Brewers (4)
5. Braves (5)
THE CAPTAIN AMERICA TEAMS (Cool, dangerous, yet not without their vulnerabilities)
6. Tigers (7)
7. Rangers (6)
8. Diamondbacks (10)
9. Angels (9)
9. Rays (8)
THE SUPERMAN TEAMS (Big, popular and treated like they’re something special, but they really kind of suck and are boring)
11. Cardinals (12)
12. Giants (11)
THE GREEN LANTERN TEAMS (At various times impressive but ultimately quite forgettable and, frankly, interchangeable)
13. Indians (16)
14. White Sox (15)
15. Blue Jays (14)
16. Reds (13)
THE JOKER TEAMS (So much in wasted resources and talents. And for what? Evil ends.)
17. Dodgers (17)
18. Mets (19)
THE FLASH TEAMS (interesting at times, but really, what’s the point?)
19. Rockies (18)
20. Nationals (20)
21. Athletics (23)
22. Pirates (21)
THE CYPHER TEAMS (basically powerless, poorly conceived)
