The Best
1) Jackson Nine - Unstoppable, dominant, don't want to face them in the playoffs, all describe the Jackson Nine right now. With a win % hovering near .800 it'll be a daunting task to take them out.
The Rest
2) Chicago Cubs - The best all around team in the NL with a lineup to fear and a pitching staff to match. I'll be eating crow for saying Cleveland would dominate the NL...
3) Columbus Cannibals - So much for them being lil Cleveland or Cleveland Lite. The Cannibals took the division lead a while back and have Cleveland in their rear view now...
4) Colorado Rocky Mountain Defenders - Once again, I didn't see this one coming, but Colorado has maintained a heathly lead in the NL West and is one of the elite teams in either league.
The Contenders
5) Cleveland Keggers - The loss of two good arms in the pitching staff could present problems down the road, but there's no counting out this team until the fat lady starts singing.
6) Honolulu Tsunamis - Been a very up and down season so far and the Tsunamis have fought their way back into the AL West lead. It'll be rough as Boise is very very good too.
7) New Orleans Canes - Tough to be 20+ games over .500 and still 10 games back in the division. Have really turned the corner this year and are looking good to be in the playoffs.
8) Boize Boozehounds - Apparently the addition of a Jack Daniels filled water fountain has really helped relax the pitching staff and they're finally pulling their weight. Not a team you'll want to face in the first or second rounds. Well not really a team you want to face at all with a 3 time MVP showing up every day.
9)Chicago Ravens - Making good trades everyday pushes you to the top of a bad division.
10) Wichita Wichitards - I don't watch the NL much, but they're looking good. (sorry i'm AL biased)
The Pretenders
11) Arizona will fight Tacoma and Wichita for that final wildcard spot mark my words.
12) Tacoma (see 10)
13) Kansas City Royal Flush - A good team, but a brutal division. Sorry.
14) Richmond Colonials - Spanked the Tsunamis, but stuck at the bottom of the Nasty AL South.
15) Charlotte Lumbee Warriors - Leading their division for the first time I can remember. Usually always a bridesmaid, never a bride. Good luck holding on, the Pirahanas are pretty good.
16) Pawtucket Pirahanas - Breathing down Charlotte's neck.
17) Anaheim Waves - Still improving, but Boise and Honolulu are the class of a down year AL West.
18) Florida Fighting Flamingos - A division leader this low?! Yeah its a weak division and whoever ends up winning will face Cleveland in the first round. Great fun there...
19) Atlanta Kamakazis - See 17
20) Loisville Freezer Monkeys - Marked improvement for the 3rd straight year, but still a sub .500 team.
21) Helena Urbanites - Rebuilding I guess.
Next year will be our year (The Cubbies Mantra)
22) Philadelphia Phantoms
23) Toledo Illini
24) Detroit Renegade
25) Cincinnatti Red Doggs
26) Nashville Sound
27) Los Angeles Stars
28) Trenton Falcons
Fighting For that #1 Selection
29)St Louis Lunatics
30)Boston Clydesdales
31)Portland Wet Streaks
32)Durham Bulls
