| Team | Rank (LW) | Record | Trending | Comments | |
 | Rangers | 1 (1) | 9-3-1 | - | For most of the week they were barely able to hold off the Marlins holding a 8-5-1 lead for the whole week. From Friday on though, it got ugly real quick and Texas ended up with a dominating 12-2-0 win. If Texas can find a 1B they might be unbeatable. |
 | Cubs | 2 (3) | 9-4 |  | The Cubs are finally back in the two spot after a few week absence. Their offense was poor, but got solid pitching to lead them over the fading Rays. They have another easy matchup this week against KC. |
 | Indians | 3 (4) | 9-4 | | Another week, another win as the streak was extended to 8 games. They finally faced a tough test during the streak and passed with flying colors, easily taking out the #2 Giants in a World Series rematch. I think it's safe to say there no longer a question about whether or not they belong with the league's elite. |
 | Giants | 4 (2) | 8-4-1 |  | Well that was ugly. The Giants didn't horribly, but they definitely didn't play as well as we're used to seeing and they ended up getting pounded against Cleveland. They had a shot to get revenge in a World Series rematch. but failed. They should be able to bounce back against Boston. |
 | Rockies | 5 (5) | 8-4-1 | - | Colorado's pitching was piss-poor, but not surprisingly the offense bailed them out. Their pitching almost cost them a win, but once again Puig and Davis led the team to a 8-6-0 win. They'll need to pitch much better if they want a chance to be the ones to stop Cleveland's streak. |
 | Phillies | 6 (9) | 7-6 | | The offense was very good once again in a nice win over a playoff-hopeful team. When their hitters are on, this team can hit with the best of them and it showed this week. Utley is finally healthy and reminding everyone that he still belongs among the top 2B in the league as he's now up to double digit HR in just 50 or so games. |
 | Nationals | 7 (10) | 7-6 | | Washington took care of business this week in an easy win over the awful Tigers. Their pitching was pretty bad, but when you face the worst team in the league it really doesn't matter. They have another easy matchup this week against the equally bad Mariners. |
