Since Blogger is out of service I am posting this on the News page.
I recruited some help to rate the Class C teams in the state. Here is how the four of us ranked the teams for the week of May 13, 2011.
| Andy Johnson | Jim Buesgens | Tom Elliot | Baseball Guy | |
| 1 | Winsted | Midway | Midway | Midway |
| 2 | Howard Lake | Raymond | Winsted | Winsted |
| 3 | Midway | Howard Lake | Dassel-Cokato | Dassel-Cokato |
| 4 | Lastrup | Sacred Heart | Blue Earth | Sacred Heart |
| 5 | Raymond | Lastrup | Fort Ripley | Blue Earth |
| 6 | Sacred Heart | Loretto | Lastrup | Raymond |
| 7 | Blue Earth | Big Lake | Howard Lake | Howard Lake |
| 8 | Dassel-Cokato | Blue Earth | Sartell Muskies | Sartell |
| 9 | Green Isle | Winsted | Cannon Falls | Green Isle |
| 10 | Sartell | Dassel-Cokato | Milroy | Cannon Falls |
| Belle Plaine |
Notes from Andy Johnson:
Midway and Lasrup split games last week
New to my rankings: Sartell
Dropped from my rankings: Belle Plaine (noticed that they lost to Lonsdale)
Big games this week:
Friday – Howard Lake at Winsted
Sunday – Dassel-Cokato at Howard Lake
Notes from Tom Elliott:
Midway (I’m told they were missing guys in Lastrup)
Sartell Muskies (there is a Sartell Stone Poneys, too; it’s a two-team town).
Milroy (best team in the Corn Belt League)
I’m using your poll to judge some of the teams, since I don’t know much about them. I hope no one’s taking this too seriously. I’m interested in any input.
Notes from Baseball Guy:
I’ve heard good things about the Fairmont Martins–Could break into the rankings soon. Things will start changing when the tournaments start. I’ll rate Class B again next week. One note—Shakopee and Dundas (Last year’s champion and runner-up respectively) play Friday night at Dundas at 7:30 P.M. If you have any comments or think another team should be ranked send an email with your information to: bnbaseballguy@gmail.com.
State Board Meeting
The State Board of Directors meet this weekend on Saturday, May 14 at the Holiday Inn in St. Cloud. Meeting time is 11:00 A.M. As usual the meetings are open to anyone interested in hearing what is happening in Minnesota Amateur Baseball.
