Season 15 Power Rankings # 1

We're out of the gate for season 15, and it's time to check in with the power rankings.  The trend overall this season seems to bet a lot of good offense to go with really bad pitching.  The top 2 spots do not change from the preseason rankings, with Oklahoma City coming in at #1 and Honolulu at #2.  If the start of the season is any indicator, these two teams could be battling it out for the top spot all season, and in fact have a series coming up which could bet telling.  It wouldn't be a reach to put Honolulu at the top spot.  Buffalo comes in at #3 with another strong start out of the gate.  Seattle jumps from outside the top 10 to #4 with an incredible start, although it remains to be seen if they can keep it up.  Hard hitting Pawtucket round out the top 5.  It's certainly been an interesting start, can't wait to see what the rest of the season holds.   Here are the complete rankings!

2	Honolulu	27	13	2	Incredibly close #2, have almost unseeded OKC
