It feels as if we’ve only just begun our trek down the winding road of the 2022 season, and yet the calendar has already flipped to May. Some teams have rode the power rankings like a roller coaster, shooting up and down as their weekly performances hover around the extremes. The more information we have to judge, the more these will stabilize. In the meantime, be sure to save the receipts from the first few weeks to bring up later in the year to show us how off-base we were.
If there’s one cause to hitch your wagon too, though, it’s this: the Reds are probably going to get quite comfortable in the cellar for the foreseeable future.
