The Detroit Tigers remain my number 1 team in my power rankings for this week, while the New York Yankees move up to the #2 spot after taking the subway series against the Mets this weekend. The Dodgers and Cubs round out the top 5.

I thought the Orioles would start to turn it around, but it looks like this is the season we’ll get out of them this year. All that talent, but they forgot to get pitching. The Rockies are averaging about a win a week. I think they are trying to be worse than last year’s White Sox team.
