MLB Power Ratings
Last updated: Friday, November 4, 2016 - final ratings
Welcome to my MLB power ratings! I will be updating this page on Mondays and
Fridays. These ratings are based on a mathematical formula which involves
several factors, including won-lost record, schedule strength, and margin of
victory in games. Results of recent games are weighed with slightly more
emphasis than games played earlier in the season. Enjoy!
LR = Ranking on last update
