E Rankings

1.        Trust/Wicked/Mario: Had a tough 3-2 finish this weekend after losing the much anticipated match-up against Mush Reloaded. 

2.       Repomonkey:  A disappointing loss to Dooley’s who seem to have come around for the summer surprised me, but finished 3-2.

3.       Detroit Syndicate:  Went 3-2 this weekend. I had the chance to watch them play the 11 inning showdown against Dooleys and it was a blast to watch.  There is a ton of passion on this team, and if they can keep their youngster emotions in check I think they can be a consistent top 5 team.

4.       Own it Realtor/DO:  Some will complain that they made it into the top 5 after a 1-2 finish.  A new-formed team put together and led by a veteran of the game.   They have a veteran pitcher and consistent hitters, their one issue I see is their defense.  Don’t sleep on this team.

5.       Mushsportz.com:  There is a TON Of chatter about this team throughout the softball community.  They have been a consistently mediocre team through the years, but I watched them play two games this weekend.  They have a solid line-up, top to bottom, and have a deep bench.  I’m not expecting a ton from them but I think they can be a top-5 team. 

Surprise of the week: Dooleys/Pole Position

They got off to a very very slow start, and were the butt of many jokes early this year, but they had a solid 3-2 finish, beating Riot, Bright Horizon, and Repo.  I’m rooting for them next weekend and am curious to see how they come back.

Flop of the week: Kings 

They won a TAGS tournament 2 weekends ago and seemed to be a little bit too confident, coming out with a 0-2 finish against a tough TNT and MC Push.  They truly need some veteran consistency to level these guys out.  While they do have talent, they need help in the field, but with the emotions on this team, I could see them folding before worlds.
