MLB 2010 Week 17 Power Rankings

A week has passed since our last rankings, which can only mean one thing… The latest edition of Power Rankings!

1. Yankees: A week of playing several mediocre teams hasn’t changed our opinion that the Yanks are the best team in the division, league, and sport. However, their success does not come without concerns–injuries threaten to slow their pursuit of a second consecutive World Series.

2. Rays: The Rays finally got their first no hitter in team history. Tampa Bay has won 5 in a row with that …

MLB 2010 Week 16 Power Rankings

We know how much you have missed your Power Rankings… Fear not, they have returned, just in time for the second half!

1. Yankees: In our first Power Rankings after a long hiatus due to site maintenance and the All Star Game, the Yankees are out in front. After doggedly chasing the Rays in the East for several weeks early in the season, Los Yanquis have finally proven themselves to be the best team in the division, league, and sport. However, their success does not come without concerns–injuries threaten to slow …

MLB Power Rankings 2010 Week 7

What’s this like, 6 weeks of dominance? The Rays stay hot, the Phillies and Cardinals get a little cold.

1. Rays: The Rays continue to lead the AL East and our rankings with the the second best pitching staff and lineup in the major leagues. Keeping up this level of play makes Tampa the team to beat right now. David Price and Matt Garza have been incredible in the early goings, and it must be very encouraging for Rays fans to see these young …

MLB Power Rankings 2010 Week 6

The Rays must be getting bored at the top.

1. Rays: The Rays continue to lead the AL East and our rankings with the the second best pitching staff and lineup in the major leagues. Keeping up this level of play makes Tampa the team to beat right now. It should be fun to watch them fight it out with the not-too-shabby NL East.

2. Phillies: Leading that not-too-shabby division, the Phillies  look unstoppable right now. The starting pitching settled down a bit and the …

MLB Power Rankings 2010 Week 5

Your power rankings for Week 5… Not much has changed.

1. Rays: The Rays continue to lead the AL East and our rankings with the highest-ranked offense in all of baseball. Their pitching isn’t too shabby either (it doesn’t hurt to be third in the league in ERA), and keeping up this level of play makes Tampa the team to beat right now. Fortunately for Rays fans, Tampa Bay also gets to ride out an pretty easy next few series.

2. Yankees: Just behind the Rays …

MLB Power Rankings 2010 Week 3

Your power rankings for Week 3…

1. Rays: “Tampa Bay is going to need more than luck and timely hitting”–we noted this last week, in expectation that the Rays’ success might be short-lived if they didn’t find some consistency. They have, storming to the lead in the American League East with the highest-ranked offense in baseball. The second lowest ERA in the AL isn’t too shabby either, and keeping up this level of play puts Tampa at the top of our Power Rankings.

2. Yankees: Just behind the Rays in …

MLB Power Rankings 2010 Week 2

After a week of baseball under our belts, it’s time to rank the top 10. The Phils came charging out of the gate with some stellar bats–ok so they have played the Nats and Astros, but they have been pretty convincing about it–and the Giants have shown off their impressive pitching staff. Perhaps the biggest surprise has been the Oakland Athletics, who are sporting the lowest ERA in the bigs right now. A few teams, most notably the Jason Heyward accompanied Braves and their NL East rivals the Marlins, just …

Super Bowl XLIV Pick and Analysis

The finale of the 2009-2010 season is here. Fortunately for fans of offense, the biggest game of the year for the biggest sport in the country will be played by, in the humble opinion of the SportsHuman, the two best quarterbacks in the league today. The accuracy, decision-making, strength, and leadership of both Peyton Manning and Drew Brees are absolutely off the charts, which will make Sunday’s game a fun one.
Both teams are built on terrific offense and decent defense. For the Colts, the passing game is almost everything. The …

As nice as their story has been, I don’t think the Jets can put up more points than the Colts, even with that great defense.
The offensive and defensive firepower on the Vikings appears to be too much for the one-sided Saints to beat–but it should be close.
