How are power rankings formulated, anyway?

The Chicago tribune’s Phil Rogers has declared the Cubs the best team in the majors, replacing the Red Sox at the top of his power rankings after the Sox had a bit of a rough week. So yes, the Red Sox are now ranked third overall.

Granted, ESPN’s power rankings were done on Friday, but they have the Cubs ranked second behind the Diamondbacks… AND THAT’S AFTER THE CUBBIES SWEPT THEM THE PREVIOUS WEEK!

The Sox are ranked 7th! …just an observation, I guess.

p.s. I think Detroit should be #1 overall (in an untruthful kind of way).
