Season 4 Power Rankings - Preseason

Chuckles McGee - Cobbfather Post Gazette

Howdy, I'm your new Gazette reporter Chuckles, here to bring you a new feature, the Power Rankings. The initial Power Rankings are based on Leon and Shenaynay's preseason predictions. The plan is to update them every 15 games. The rankings going forward will be based on the top secret Chuckles team rating system that has more components than even the most complex Bill James formula, so I won't bother explaining it. So without further adieu, here are the Season 4 Preseason Power Rankings!
