Earl's MLB power ranking · Week 27, 2026

Cincinnati sits at 28th with a -1.033 runs-neutral rating, so this is a below-average club that the market has actually been shading slightly toward, given the -0.35 vs-market gap. The encouraging part is the 0.517 rating jump in a week against a schedule that graded out at 0.208, suggesting the recent form is real rather than a soft spot. At 75-87 with a prior-season rating of just 0.25, I'm treating this as a mild buy-low on the number rather than a team ready to climb out of the bottom tier.
