MLB Power Rankings (Updated 9/1)

Not only does the Predictalator run every upcoming game 50,000 times, it plays every team against every other team to come up with the ultimate Power Rankings. The Predictalator is successful because it best accounts for actual matchups and team's abilities to exploit opponent's weaknesses, so the Power Rankings are not necessarily the best way to know who would win between two teams. They are, however, the best possible way to measure which teams have put together the most impressive seasons. The best team may not be favored against the second-best team, but it would be favored more significantly against the rest of the teams in the sport.

To build the MLB Power Rankings below, we "played" every team against every other team 50,000 times each and ranked by overall winning percentage of those games. These Power Rankings are based on rosters as of September 1 and based solely on what the players have done up to this point in the season. Rosters are current, but stats essentially just account for play to-date.

As we have done with great success with college and professional basketball, we have picks available for every NFL and college game as well. Pick packages include Play Value Calculators and Keys for optimal bankroll management, the ability to play the game yourself using any lines you choose, a unique parlay calculator, the ability to track the Predictalator's success, research trends and comprehensive fantasy projections for every single player. This technology has been used to accurately predict the last seven Super Bowls against the spread and win the inaugural Richard Gardner pro football pick'em contest.

The Predictalator

The Predictalator is the most advanced sports forecasting software available today because it has the ability to account for all of the relevant statistical interactions of the players (playing or not playing/injured), coaches, officials, fans (homefield advantage) and weather in each game.

The Predictalator plays every game 50,000 times before it's actually played. This provides us the ability to assign probabilities to the likelihood of just about any outcome occurring in any contest.

Try it out yourself with the Customizable Predictalator.
