Power Rankings
Week of 2026-09-28 — an Elo-style rating built from every real result this season, updated weekly. Ratings start every team at 1500 and move based on wins/losses, margin of victory, and opponent strength.
This is a standalone strength ranking, not a betting signal — we tested it against real graded picks and found it added no real edge over what our pick engine already accounts for, most likely because a team-level rating can't capture who's actually starting on the mound that day, which matters more in baseball than overall team strength does.
