Power Rankings Week Ten - A New Number One

1. Barrie Baycats
(Last Week: 2nd | Record: 19-10 | 2nd Place | Streak: W6)
The hottest team in the league heading into the break. Winners of six straight, Barrie is surging with strong pitching and timely hitting, overtaking Welland for the top ranking.

2. Welland Jackfish
(Last Week: 1st | Record: 22-8 | 1st Place | Streak: L2)
Still first in the standings, but a rare two-game slide at home knocks them from the top spot. They'll regroup and remain the team to beat entering the second half.

3. Hamilton Cardinals
(Last Week: 4th | Record: 16-13 | T-4th Place | Streak: W1)
Hamilton holds strong in the four-spot logjam. Bounced back immediately after a tough extra inning loss to London Friday night. 

4.London Majors
(Last Week: 3rd | Record: 18-11 | 3rd Place | Streak: W1)
A small slide in the rankings despite staying steady. London’s experience will be key as the playoff race tightens.

5. Chatham-Kent Barnstormers
(Last Week: 5th | Record: 16-13 | T-4th Place | Streak: W1)
The Barnstormers continue to show they belong, tied with Hamilton and still within reach of the league’s top tier.

6. Kitchener Panthers
(Last Week: 9th | Record: 12-20 | 8th Place | Streak: L1)
Up three spots thanks to recent improvements and slipping performances from others. Can they build momentum in the back half?

7. Guelph Royals
(Last Week: 6th | Record: 12-18 | 7th Place | Streak: W1)
A modest rebound keeps Guelph in the conversation. Lineup has been different night after night as they await some old new faces later this week. 

8. Toronto Maple Leafs
(Last Week: 6th | Record: 12-17 | 6th Place | Streak: L4)
A tough skid has the Leafs spiraling just before the break. They're still in sixth in the standings, but the gap is shrinking quickly.

9.  Brantford Red Sox
(Last Week: 8th | Record: 6-23 | 9th Place | Streak: L6)
The slide continues in Brantford with six straight losses. They’ll need a second-half surge just to play spoiler.
