Power Rankings

1. Ninth Street Nine
  • Faith in Barry has paid off, but it's the kids like Rich Hill and Kelly Johnson leading the Grandmaster of Fantasy's comeback tour.
2. Hampton Bay Bambinos
  • Surprise of the young season. 3/4 of his rotation on the DL? Ryan Howard and #1 overall draft pick Alex Gordon taking the month off? Who cares as long as Slammin Sammy's in the lineup.
3. Nassau Chin Music
  • Loss of top prospect Phil Hughes a downer, but Jose Reyes and a lights out bullpen have opened up a huge 11 game lead.
4. Simpsonville Slayers
  • Lackey and Haren pulling David Wright's weight so far, but loss of Joe Mauer has to hurt in the cut-throat Cool Papa Bell Division.
5. Setauket Horde
  • Jimmy Rollins is tearing it up and everyone else is doing a little bit of everything.
6. Shaolin Empire
  • Overall stats impressive, but tough match-ups taking their toll.
7. Bay Ridge Wapdagos
  • A-Rod proving to be most underpaid player in league as he's carried team to tie for first in tight Doby.
8. Mattituck Natives
  • Ted Lilly and Josh Beckett have been aces on the mound. Only a matter of time before farm stud Billy Butler is entrenched in OF.
9. Philadelphia Kane Nines
  • The most active front office in the league pulled off what may be the coup of the year: JJ Hardy for Sean Casey.
10. Westphalia Shepherds
  • Top pick Chris Young playing almost exactly as expected, showing power and speed and a low average.
11. Kohler Toilet
  • Three words: Pujols is coming.
12. Riverhead Red Streaks
  • Pulled the trigger for Chipper. Now needs to light a fire under everyone else.
13. Laurel Leathernecks
  • Josh Hamilton has been an amazing story...oh, who are we kidding--did you see Dice-K's last start?
14. New Libertatia Swashbucklers
  • While waiting for next year, this year doesn't look so far out of reach. Will they make a move or hold course?
15. Browntown Fudge Dragons

16. North Babylon Generals
  • Really not a bad team. Still time for big money guys to step up. Team to watch.
17. Coram Crushers
  • Offense was a question mark, but really hurt by Mariano Rivera and Carlos Zambrano's slow starts and that BJ Ryan injury really stings.
18. Pequash Panthers
  • If only they had Brad Hawpe they might be 17th on the list.
19. St. Olaf Dutch Ovens
20. Ridge Ducks
  • Two teams, four owners, a combined 38 games back. But, it's only May. Walk it off.
