Earl's MLB power ranking · Week 27, 2026

Baltimore sits at 16th with a rating of just 0.123 runs better than an average team on a neutral field, but the arrow is pointing up sharply after a 0.583 jump versus last week. That surge comes against a nearly neutral schedule (0.011) and with a prior-season rating of -0.077, so the market's modest 0.15 edge over the number suggests this team is still being priced closer to its mediocre 79-82 record than its current form. With no injuries docked and no key absences, I'm a buyer on Baltimore as an underrated club whose true talent is climbing faster than the spread reflects.
