Baseball rankings at this point in the season are about like preseason football polls. Don't mean very much.

They mean nothing and they mean everything all at once. When you have a committee selects the top 8 teams and additional 8 host teams, preception is key. They are going to be more forgiving to teams that they feel are good (i.e. that were in top 5 preseason). LSU football in 2007 doesn't get back into the title game after the 2nd loss if they weren't ranked so high to start the season. But the pollsters new that LSU had one of the top teams so by virtue of other teams' losses, LSU was able to climb back in.
