GSPN Power Rankings - Introduction

Heading into Season 8 of Glavine 300, the writers at GSPN magazine decided to take a look at the franchises of seasons past. How have they fared? What path did they take to get where they are today? Have they been successful, or one of the dogs of the league? What GSPN has come up with is a cumulative Power Ranking system. Over the next few weeks all 32 teams will be combed over and ranked based on past success…and failure. Each franchise will be ranked based on all 7 of its previous seasons…so yes…if you picked up your team in season 5…you may not like the ranking. If this is the case, our advice to you is; a.) Work to raise the ranking b.) Start your own magazine. The rankings will take place over the next few weeks as we work our way through Season 8.

At GSPN, we decided to save the best for last, so our ranking system is going to work from the bottom up. First we will be looking at the franchises who, despite their efforts, have not been able to find any success. Team abandonment, mismanagement, injuries, bad trades and poor drafting are the hallmarks of these franchises.
