30. Colorado Rockies- Two star hitters in Tulowitzki and Gonzalez but other than that there is no positivity on this team.
29. Texas Rangers- Depleted roster on pitching and on hitting. Don’t expect anything different for the rest of the season.
28. Arizona Diamondbacks- This team has no upside especially with their best player, Paul Goldschmidt, likely out for the year.
27. Houston Astros- A building team who is quietly improving their pitching and hitting but still haven’t gotten out of the 20-30 range.
26. Chicago Cubs- Cubs remain a bottom tier team, don’t expect anything different for the remainder of the season.
25. Boston Red Sox- The Red Sox lost stud pitcher, Jon Lester, but gaining the bat of Cespedes is huge for this teams future.
24. Philadelphia Phillies- Has many missing pieces to this roster and needs to start rebuilding.
23. Minnesota Twins- The Twins remain a struggling team with no upside.
22. San Diego Padres- New GM A.J. Preller looks to improve this club.
21. New York Mets- The Mets remain the inferior team in the bronx, but hope to build momentum towards the finish of this season.
20. Chicago White Sox- The better of the two teams in Chicago but continue to struggle. They have an established ace in their rotation to build off of.
19. Cleveland Indians- I think the Indians are paying more attention to Johnny Football and Lebron James than they are to their own team.
18. Miami Marlins- A dark horse team who could sneak up on the Braves and the Nationals and try to steal a wild card position. Hitting is improving rapidly.
17. Tampa Bay Rays- Were on a roll when David Price was still in the rotation. Now that they dealt him they should stay at a steady sub par record.
16. Cincinnati Reds- Their hitting is hurting this teams chances of seeing the playoffs. Team roster overall has tons potential though.
15. Atlanta Braves- Coming off a major slump the Braves look to regain possession of the NL East. A very streaky team that will be fighting for playoff contention.
14. Toronto Blue Jays- This club has all the necessary pieces to be a top team, small streaky slumps have gotten the best of them this season.
13. New York Yankees- Should be a top ten team if healthy. Their rotation has been depleted especially with the playing of stud rookie pitcher, Masahiro Tanaka, on the DL.
12. Seattle Mariners- Talented team who sometimes show signs of improvement, but continuously fails to give their pitchers any help, which is the reason for numerous losses.
11. Kansas City Royals- A very quiet but talented team, who have been playing good baseball recently.
10. Washington Nationals- Playing very steady baseball, and must maintain first place in the NL East to ensure their spot in the playoffs.
9. Pittsburgh Pirates- The Pirates have had a very steady, successful season and look to ride into the playoffs smoothly.
8. Milwaukee Brewers- Currently in the midst of a tough stretch facing the Dodgers, but if they can take at least half of those match ups they should remain in the top 10 of the power rankings.
7. St. Louis Cardinals- The Cardinals are playing good baseball and need to finish the season strong to win the NL Central and ensure their position in the playoffs.
6. Detroit Tigers- A very powerful hitting and pitching team especially with the addition of David Price. Should once again make a deep run in the playoffs.
5. San Francisco Giants- Their ace, Bumgarner, has been pitching brilliantly as of lately, but the hitting is holding them back.
4. Baltimore Orioles- The Orioles are riding a hot streak right now and they are sitting pretty atop the AL East standings
3. Los Angeles Dodgers- The Dodgers have a very complete ball club. Kershaw is pitching better than ever and the hitting is lineup is performing as expected.
2. Los Angeles Angels- The Angels are hitting exceptionally well and are playing very smart baseball. Even with an exceptional record they still remain 2nd in their division.
1. Oakland Athletics- The A’s are the best team in baseball, it has been clear for awhile now. They must continue this though so they can maintain the top spot in the AL West division.
