Season 31 Power Rankings #3

As we down the corner down the stretch of the regular season in Season 31, it's time to check in with another edition of the power rankings!  And there's a #1, as it has bounced backed to Cheyenne, who held the top spot after the first quarter of the season.  Their top rated offense and improved pitching propel them to #1 after a mediocre second quarter.  Holding steady at #2 is Texas, still playing solid ball.  Up 6 spots to #3 is Montgomery, who posted a league best 31-9 record over the last 40 games, thanks to improved pitching.  Cleveland's improved offense has landed them at #4, and previous #1 Florida checks in at #5, still having the top rated pitching staff, but has seen it's offense tail off since the midway point.  Now, for the biggest climbers and biggest falls since the last rankings!

Biggest Climbers: #13 St. Louis (+11), #17 Monterrey (+10), #11 Vancouver (+8), #10 Atlanta (+7), #3 Montgomery (+6)

Biggest Falls: #14 Dover (-10), #23 Detroit (-9), #21 Chicago (-5), #28 San Francisco (-5)

Here are the complete rankings, good luck down the home stretch of the season!
