TheChickenRuns@Midnight Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 http://espn.go.com/mlb/powerrankings #16 First Matt Dominguez breaks his elbow, and now Donnie Murphy gets plunked on the wrist; it's getting downright dangerous to play the hot corner in Miami. Emilio Bonafacio will fill in for a couple days -- yuck. What you guys think? They ranked us in top of the Mets even though they won the series 2-1.

mystikol87 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Sounds about right; we seem like a .500 team +/- variance, career years, above-expectation performances, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

floridafly Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 I honestly don't like these powering rankings at all... I know it's a small sample size, but power rankings need to reflect how teams are playing RIGHT NOW. Not how they will probably eventually start to play... Red Sox 7th after going 0-3? Unacceptable. Royals 26th after going 3-1? Also unacceptable. In the future, the Royals may very well play like the 26th best team and the Red Sox 7th, but these are current rankings. Not aptitude predictors of the future. Let it show as such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
