Hello and welcome to my first Power Ranking for the 2022-23 season ABL season (and first EVER, actually). I will endeavour to post one weekly throughout the season and future editions may include brief series previews, if time allows 😣
You can find out a little bit about how I compile my Power Ranking towards the end of the post.

Thoughts
• The Power Ranking confirms that the Brisbane Bandits are rightfully the team to beat this season (whoo!).
• We can see the Adelaide Giants are winning at a pace that is unsustainable when taking into account their play on the field, so look for them to regress in the coming weeks.
*Though, it must be mentioned that they did play a game against Geelong-Korea in which they conceded 23 runs, so that has messed up their pyth. win % and their overall pitching lines. Give it a couple more weeks for the numbers to normalise.
• Also - Sorry, Blue Sox fans 😬
Power Ranking - A Primer
My Power Ranking is a simple points-based ranking system. Points are awarded based on the following categories & the team's rankings within the league in these categories -
• Actual Win %
• Pythagorean Win %
• Starting Pitching
• Offense
• Bullpen
• Defense
The maximum number of points a team can score is 42 and the minimum is 5.25.
I may include points for recent performance in future posts.
