Braves-Nation.com MLB Poll - 7.14.08
The following poll was developed through a panel of 9 Braves-Nation.com members. The points were derived from the following very scientific system. Each first place team on each poll submitted received 30 points, the second place team received 29 points, etc. all the way down to the last place team on each poll receiving one point.
After all polls were submitted, the total points were tallied and the teams were ranked in descending order. In the event of a tie, we used the team's winning percentage as the tie-breaker.
The numbers you see below correspond with the amount of points each team received, not the order in which they were ranked.
The Chicago Cubs topped the Braves-Nation.com Poll for the fifth time in six weeks this week, retaking the number one spot from the Tampa Bay Rays. The New York Mets (+5) and the Balitmore Orioles (-5) were the biggest movers in this week's poll, with the Tampa Bay Rays (-3), Toronto Blue Jays (+2), Boston Red Sox (+2) and San Francisco Giants (-2) making up the rest of this week's biggest movers.<table class="tborder" border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1"><tbody><tr align="center"><td class="tcat" colspan="3">Braves-Nation.com MLB
