Season 5 Power Rankings - Regular Season #7

Chuckles McGee - Cobbfather Post Gazette

It's time for another edition of the Power Rankings! It's a pretty boring edition of the rankings, as the top 7 remain the same from the last edition. Rochester solidified their position on the top of the standings going an impressive 13-2 this period, while #2 Tampa Bay stayed on their heels going 11-4. #3-7 remained Jackson, Sacramento, Vancouver, Atlanta and Dover.

#8 San Francisco and #9 Burlington each had 11-4 records since the last rankings, improving their position from the last edition. The #14 New York Primetimers had a solid 10-5 record since last edition.

On the not so hot side, #16 Boston plummeted 8 spots in the rankings after a horrid 3-12 record over the last 15, a feat only matched by #31 Little Rock and #32 Los Angeles.

Here's this edition's teams on the rise and teams on the decline section.

Teams on the rise: Rochester, Tampa Bay, San Francisco, Burlington, New York (NL), Oakland, St. Louis

Teams on the decline: Boston, Charleston, Syracuse, Kansas City, Little Rock, Los Angeles

And now the unveiling of the latest edition of the Regular Season Power Rankings!!
