ESPN has just released its initial MLB power rankings for 2012. No real surprises at the top -- Yankees, Rangers, Angels and Tigers are the top four. The highest-ranked NL team is the D-Backs at #7, with the Phillies, Cardinals, Giants and Marlins following directly behind, all just a noodge ahead of your #12 Blue Jays. The Rays are #5 and the Red Sox are #6, so 12th in MLB translates here to fourth in the AL East. Bringing up the rear at #30 are your (dreadful?) Houston Astros. Let's go 'stros!
Who looks, to you, to be ranked too high or too low?
My take ...
Everything else seems pretty reasonable for a season that's only played two games of more than 2400 so far, and those two split between the current #25 and #29 teams ...
What say you, Bauxites?
