The competition has been fierce, and every team is striving to secure their position in the league. 

 

At the Top of the Standings 

Currently, Sarah’s Kibbes, led by the formidable Gabe Abady, sits comfortably at the top of the standings with an impeccable 4-0 record. Their performance so far has been nothing short of spectacular, showcasing their dominance and intent to maintain their lead. The synergy and skill displayed by Sarah’s Kibbes make them the team to watch this season. 

Trailing closely behind in the 2nd seed is Steven Gindi’s Resilience with a 3-1 record. Resilience has shown remarkable tenacity and consistency, which is evident in their standing. With standout performances like that of Sauly Esses, who had a monster week going 5/7 with 5 runs, 4 RBIs, a home run, a triple, and two doubles in a sweep, Resilience has proven they have the firepower to challenge for the top spot. 

 

Following Close By 

The Predators, captained by the legendary Michael Sabon Salomon, currently holds the 3rd seed with a 2-2 record. Despite some ups and downs, Sabon’s leadership and experience have been pivotal. His extraordinary performance against the Dawg Pound, where he went 6/8 with 7 RBIs, 4 runs, and 3 doubles, highlights the potential of the Predators to make a significant impact as the season progresses. 

Edmund Beyda’s IDF team stands at a balanced 1-1, placing them in the 4th seed. The IDF has shown flashes of brilliance and resilience. Their ability to bounce back from setbacks will be crucial as they aim to climb the standings and challenge the top teams. 

 

Teams to Watch  

Tied for the 5th seed with a 1-3 record are Uri Adler’s Dawg Pound and Sammy Esses’ Bleacher Creatures. Both teams have had a challenging start to the season but have shown glimpses of their capabilities. The Dawg Pound and Bleacher Creatures will need to find consistency and capitalize on their opportunities to improve their standings. 

Rounding out the standings in the 7th seed is The Final Battle, with an 0-2 start. Despite their current position, the season is still young, and there is ample time for them to turn things around. The Final Battle will be looking to regroup and come back stronger in the upcoming games. 

While the standings provide a snapshot of the current state of the league, it’s important to remember that we are still early in the season.
