Sitting near the middle are legends Bombers and Reds whose resurgence strikes fear into the world's contenders.

Headed near the bottom we meet the dominant Rockford Raccoons. Their explosive offense is sure to make any pitcher they face crashout. They have struggled as of late, but have taken off when their offense plays together with eight wins of double digits or more. Their rotation wouldn’t back down either led by veteran Jadyn Acuna and Travis Rivas who combined for 155 innings, 146 strikeouts, 11-7 record, and 2.56 ERA.
