Braves-Nation.com MLB Poll - 8.04.08
The following poll was developed through a panel of 7 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 Los Angeles Angels kept the top of the Braves-Nation.com Poll for the second straight weeks, again, beating out the Chicago Cubs. The Cincinnati Reds were the biggest mover in this week's polle, dropping six spots from last week. The Detroit Tigers and Oakland Athletics were right behind them, dropping five spots. The Kansas City Royals saw the biggest movement upward this week, climbing four spots in our poll.
