Score 4

So Davis...theoretically, at the end of the year the division standings and your Iterative power rankings should be roughly the same right? AKA, each division team plays roughly the same schedule, excluding a few interleague differences (and 1 or 2 non-division foe differences), but all and all, about the same?

Score 3

Well, sort of. Within a division the SOS differences could make a slight difference, certainly enough to change the order of teams. Also, it's possible -- as we saw with Arizona last year and some other teams -- for a team to significantly outperform their run differential and component stats. So there's no guarantee that the top-ranked IPR team in a division will be the division winner... But you can say with some certainty that they played better baseball than anyone else in their division.
