We’re about 12 games into the season, which means we can’t really tell much about how this year in baseball is going to play out. Needless to say, these power rankings will change as the seasons, but early on here’s who’s looking tough….

POWER RANKINGS

1.) Tampa Bay Rays (1o-3) – Just banged the shit out of Boston in Beantown. I don’t think a team in the bigs can match the pitching, power, speed, and defense of the Rays.
2.) New York Yankees (9-3) – Haven’t lost a series yet, which includes a trip to Tampa Bay. Murderous offense with Robbie Cano raking. Javy Vazquez starting to scare …. again.
3.) Minnesota Twins (9-4) – Love the offense. Love it. Real weak division, strong upside with pitching. Bullpen will get really scary at some point.
4.) Philadelphia Phillies (8-4) – Another murderous offense, with a terrifying pitching/bullpen staff aside from Doc. Will lead MLB in scoring easily this year.
5.) San Francisco (8-4) – Our first team in the Power Rankings where pitching precedes offense. God forbid, J. Sanchez gets consistently dominant.
6.) Florida Marlins (8-5) – Fiesty little offense. Need Coghlan and Maybin to get consistent. Pitching is strong and the bullpen has been pretty impressive thus far.
7.) St. Louis Cardinals (8-4) – You can’t score in 20 innings against the Mets, you get demoted. Waino may be the best pitcher, Pujols is the best hitter.. you get the idea…
8.) Colorado Rockies (6-6) – I still expect big things from this club offensively.. They finally have a legitimate Ace (Jimenez) with an Ace in the hole (De La Rosa)
