Power Rankings
Power Rankings are published weekly during the season and give a more nuanced picture of team strength than the standings alone. A manager on a bad luck streak can still rank highly if they're putting up big numbers.
How the Score Is Calculated
Each manager receives a composite score built from three weighted components:
| Component | What It Measures |
|---|---|
| Recent Average | Average points scored over the last 3 weeks |
| Season Average | Average points scored across all weeks this season |
| Record | Win-loss record converted to a percentage |
The commissioner configures the weight given to each component (they must sum to 100). A typical split might be 50% recent, 30% season, 20% record — emphasizing hot streaks while not ignoring consistency.
Reading the Rankings Page
The main rankings page shows the most recent week's rankings with each manager's rank, record, and composite score. If the commissioner has written weekly blurbs, they appear alongside each manager's entry.
Week Detail
Clicking into a specific week's rankings shows a full breakdown:
- Composite score and how each component contributed
- Starter lineup for that week — every player who scored
- Bench points — total points left on the bench
- Best bench player — the player who would have helped most if started
- Worst starter — the starter who hurt the lineup most
This detail view is useful for diagnosing lineup decisions after the fact.
Rankings History
Previous weeks are listed below the current rankings. You can browse back through the entire season to track how power dynamics shifted week to week.
Important Notes
- Rankings are computed automatically from matchup data after each week. The commissioner may trigger a manual regeneration if data was recently synced.
- Rankings are not the same as standings. A 4-7 manager who has been scoring well recently can rank above a 7-4 manager who has gone cold.
- Rankings do not affect playoff seeding — that is determined by the official Sleeper standings.
