Now that we’re three weeks into the season, the Power Rankings are shaping up and the bad teams are shaking out. The Power Rankings are published on various days of the week for different sites so a lot of sites dropped the Yankees before they swept the Indians. On the flip side, rankings rewarded the Braves, Dodgers and Brewers (!) for being three of the hottest teams in the past week or so.
