MLB Power Rankings, ranking all 30 teams from worst to first

What a difference a week makes! Last week, I was adamant that the top two teams would remain unchanged for the foreseeable future as they were head and shoulders above the rest of the pack. Well, that foreseeable future wasn’t quite as long as I had expected, and we had some major shifts in the rankings this week.

It’s still early, so big moves aren’t exactly a surprise with five of the six divisions separated by 4 games or less from top to bottom, and every team in the league sitting between 6 and 11 wins except for the Dodgers. Spoiler alert, the Dodgers are still the best team in the game as they sit at 13-4 with a run differential of +40 through the first 3 weeks of the season. OK, let’s dive into the rest of this week’s MLB power rankings list.

The recent call-up of Noah Schultz will make this Summer rebuild a bit more fun to watch, as we all are hoping that this is the second coming of Randy Johnson. While the 6’10” lefty may eventually blossom into a version of the Big Unit, I hate to tell ChiSox fans that it didn’t work out so well for the team that the original model debuted with.

But hey, at least the Boston Red Sox know they’ll have a true ace in about 5 years, since this is their favorite spot to shop for tall lefty rotation anchors. #29: San Francisco Giants Down a spot from last week, the Giants are still a mess, sitting at 6-11 on the season after losing 3 straight games. They are 3-7 over their last 10 games, and overall, they rank dead last in runs scored in the league.
