Earl's MLB power ranking ยท Week 27, 2026
#28
rank
-1.0
rating (points, neutral field)
75-87
record (2026)
-0.3
vs market (Earl \u2212 line)
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.
